Article 13

Article 13 by G4m3rG1rl March 26, 2019

Article 13/Article 11 

Quite possibly the most insane copyright measures to be conceived, Article 13 would pretty much kill fair use and all manner of other copyright exceptions on the internet while making it so that you need to buy individual licenses for all copyrighted materials you want to feature in your works, whereas Article 11 would institute a link tax that would require you to pay just that in order to link news articles, or pretty much any other kind of article or page. These measures which are being pushed in the EU parliament will thoroughly cripple the internet if they go into effect, which could happen in 2021 if not enough people tell the EU to reject them in a final vote early next year. Don't think just because you're not in the EU that you won't be affected by these measures, given how broadly and incompetently they have been constructed. It's also not helped that they're next to impossible to enforce, and could lead to internet companies operating in the EU to withdraw from there, including and surely not limited to Urban Dictionary. Live within the EU? Get under your MP's skin and demand they oppose them. Not in the EU? Spread the word as far as you can.
Article 13/Article 11 in action:

*posts a meme image containing a car, some copyrighted shirts, and various buildings and fixtures*

*image gets banned*

*Sorry, but this image cannot be allowed unless you buy dozens of licenses for everything contained within it.*

Word of the Day on August 25, 2026
West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.
Some grebo passed with Sabbath playing on his stereo.
The Poppies are at no. 17? God, a grebo band in the charts!
They're playing nu-metal now, bloody grebos!
