The EU copyright reform's proposal - which impacts on users' fundamental rights?

Keywords

EU copyright reform, censorship, intermediary liability, user-generated content, blockchain

Session description

The European copyright reform proposal - published last September and currently reviewed by the EU Parliament and the Council of the EU - could dramatically alter digital services as we know them. By requiring Internet services to implement content-filtering technologies to monitor user-generated content and creating a new exclusive right for press publishers (thereby hindering the free flow of information on the Internet), this proposal raises complex questions, with significant repercussions at a global scale on users' fundamental rights, intermediaries' liability and the use of copyright-protected content by Internet users
