he excitement is great! It would be the end of free internet. And first and foremost, it is mostly about the authors who do not yet exist in the digital world. An artist, a writer, a journalist have brought together a work that is shared thousands of times in social media, but why there is nothing barren on the author of the work. Many warfare has been fought at European level, Luxembourg is against the fact that this is the youth behind us, and now this week everything is going to go very fast.
The thing is complicated and easily accessible. For example, if major Internet platforms such as Google and Co take over a newspaper article
, they now basically have to negotiate a deal with the media house at all times. Makes sense, … and neither does. Well, if Google is willing to negotiate such a license with Axel Springer-Verlag, it will hardly be possible with a Luxembourg daily newspaper. They would then double: no contract, so no coin, and if Google leaves them in the future, the small press agencies will no longer find their publications, or much more limited; So the type of advertising for small press houses goes the pipe!
.
It seems that the media in the Grand Duchy have joined forces to get in touch with Google, Twitter, Facebook and etc. Nevertheless, many questions remain, such as:
“…from when must be paid…?”
Quote is not equal quote! I can take a short line from an article and call it the source. Must be paid in that case? It all depends on it: if the article is the only one in the www that has a message that can be found nowhere, then through it, journalism lives on as part of “scooping”.
And then the so-called “upload filter”, which is covered by Article 13 of the EU Directive, is probably completely over-charged! Still, the AI has not developed so far, and so the risk is that many will no longer be visible on the radar in the future.
The big companies, a la Google, still have it easiest. They already have the necessary technology, and if not, the necessary money is there to put it in a hurry. It is therefore rather the little ones who will feel it. It is good that Luxembourg wants to vote against the directives; in general, however, I have the impression, as if many politicians – at least in the beginning – were completely exaggerated. In many places, we have, in many places, taken fiber-optic technology through the roads and into the houses – congratulations to the government! – but do not know what to do with this technology. It would also make sense if judges and lawyers were to cope with the problem of digital, because, the march was in the process of developing with us, and that automatically brings with them processes as well.
It is good that the government has created a ministry for digital, we are just waiting for the substance!
It is also welcomed that State Budget Reporter André Bauler wants to focus on that sector. Yes, he can pick up some hot iron: for example, is it about the security of some, highly sensitive internet sites? Only yesterday was a parliamentary question from CSV man Laurent Mosar: did the data of our clients at Luxtrust be dry and dry? Is the security guaranteed? Was luxury trust the victim of hackers in the end? The man expresses himself diplomatically-careful with his questions, but at the same time understands that he seems to know something more. Gradually, the rumors in that context effectively increased …..
