The proposal was, among other things, that the media be paid to social media users of companies like Facebook and Twitter are linked to traditional media
In addition, filters on copyright should to be placed on social media to prevent the dissemination of copyrighted material without permission
but because more than ten percent of the members of the Strasbourg Chamber criticized the proposals, they were put to the vote.
And after the proposal was rejected, she is now referred to the commission for it to be dealt with
and the freedom of expression. Thanks to the citizen involvement of the tens of thousands of people who consulted their parliamentarians, we managed to put an end to the proposal. The next step is to persuade Parliament to adopt a better proposal at the next meeting in September, writes Max Andersson (MP) in a comment to the SVT
– The issue of copyright should to be taken seriously. Where we protect the free internet and ensure that cultural creators are paid fairly.
