As of July 4th 2018, the Internet as we know it might be dead for good.
The European Parliament is passing a new Copyright Directive. Article 13 #CensorshipMachine will impose widespread censorship of all the content we share online. Art, fanfiction, parodies, remixes, mashups, memes, etc.. Anything that you do not hold the rights over will be taken down.
Article 13 would force all online platforms to police and prevent the uploading of copyrighted content, or make people seek the correct licenses to post that content. Internet platforms hosting large amounts of user-uploaded content must monitor user behaviour and filter their contributions to identify and prevent copyright infringement.
Such filters will be mandatory for platforms including YouTube, Facebook, Tumblr, Reddit and Instagram, but also much smaller websites.

This doesn’t just affect Europe. The content creators you love are going to be in hot water for sharing their art and writing with you online. Any and all content that doesn’t belong to us will be filtered. Even memes are at risk, as the person who took the original photo may want to file complaints against any platform that allows it to be used without permission. But it goes even further than that.
Last Tuesday (19th June 2018) a group of more than 70 people who have played important roles in building the internet and developing it (Tim Berners-Lee, Vincent Cerf, Jimmy Wales, Mitchell Baker…) into what it is today addressed an open letter to the members of the European Parliament:
“As creators ourselves, we share the concern that there should be a fair distribution of revenues from the online use of copyright works, that benefits creators, publishers, and platforms alike.
But Article 13 is not the right way to achieve this. By requiring Internet platforms to perform automatic filtering all of the content that their users upload, Article 13 takes an unprecedented step towards the transformation of the Internet from an open platform for sharing and innovation, into a tool for the automated surveillance and control of its users. […] The damage that this may do to the free and open Internet as we know it is hard to predict, but in our opinions could be substantial.”
Here is the original Article 13. It’s even scarier. / Link 2

Forgot to mention how Married they are
I love how they both stood up like that
Aries: The fire raging inside of them was like nothing you’ve ever seen before. It was dangerous but enticing.
Taurus: They made you feel safe in their arms. Protecting you from all of life’s demons and making sure that you were always surrounded by comfort and beauty.
Gemini: Showed you how to have fun. Helped you come out of your shell and realize that there’s a lot of people like you out there, and you’ll never have to be without a friend.
Cancer: Opened their heart for you to move in. You felt at home with them and wouldn’t hesitate to start a family.
Leo: They gave you a romance like a Hollywood movie. They showered you with gifts and affection. They loved to see you smile. You were their King/Queen ruling beside them.
Virgo: Always helped you work for your goals. They kept you grounded and let you know when you were wrong. They helped you grow a lot as a person.
Libra: They hated to see you as anything but happy. Tried their best to always keep you in a good mood and felt honored to be in your presence.
Scorpio: They loved you passionately with every fiber of their being like no one else ever did, and they would do anything for you.
Sagittarius: They showed you a whole new world and distracted you from whatever stress you were under. They really showed you how to live life to its fullest every day.
Capricorn: They wanted to build an empire with you. The both of you against the world and no one could stop you from becoming the ultimate power couple.
Aquarius: Opened your mind to things you never even dreamed possible before. You loved that they would always fight for what’s right and they always fought for their right to be an individual. A true free spirit.
Pisces: You admired their creativity. They were always dreaming of something and you couldn’t wait to come home to hear them tell you about their daydreams. They believed anything was possible if you put your mind to it, and they made you believe it too.
Taylor Swift: look what you made me do
Me, trying to figure out what exactly it is that she did:
