Now we see how it works out in the courts.
Venicilian: wow. Jesus hung around with everyone. boys, girls, rich, poor(mostly), sick, healthy, etc. in fact, i bet he even went up to gay people and tried to heal them so they would be straight.
The Parkus Empire: Being serious on NSG is like wearing a suit to a nude beach.
New Kereptica: Since power is changed energy over time, an increase in power would mean, in this case, an increase in energy. As energy is equivalent to mass and the density of the government is static, the volume of the government must increase.

I actually voted for "Well, actually..."

Punch me.

(To be fair, I just voted for the opinion to exist. My OOC vote is to illegally buy memes, which I did with Nilrahrarfan, so I just voted for that option as a joke.)
If you want to expand the NDG (like, say, if you want to dissolve a region by moving your guys), send me a telegram and I'll check your stuff.

Pfft no bigger it’s not like we don’t pirate content with impunity now so I doubt it will change for small unimportant nobodies like me

Those of you with a billion followers on your news sites might suffer though. But on the upside real journalism might come back instead of tweet farming

Doubt it as there will be a link tax for news aggregators.

If you want more "real journalism," maybe funding it might be a better idea than giving copyright holders too much power.

Members of the S&D, EPP, and ALDE were vastly in favor of it. Most members of the GUE/NGL and members of populist parties were against it, while Greens/EFA members throughout the EU seem split.

While this site does use loaded language and has a clear bias, it does provide information for how every MEP voted. Go to the top right to find your country (or whichever one you're interested in seeing the votes for) and scroll through the MEPs and their parties.

Edit: I'm very against this legislation, as all people should be.
