The Final Version of the EU's Copyright Directive Is the Worst One Yet | Electronic Frontier Foundation[h=3]News that you're not allowed to discuss[/h]Article 11, which allows news sites to decide who can link to their stories and charge for permission to do so, has also been worsened. The final text clarifies that any link that contains more than "single words or very short extracts" from a news story must be licensed, with no exceptions for noncommercial users, nonprofit projects, or even personal websites with ads or other income sources, no matter how small.
How will these changes affect a site like DP?
