Remember when @BorisJohnson tweeted that #uploadfilter and #LinkTax showed what’s wrong with the EU and would be scrapped after Brexit? Guess what, not only did the UK vote for the directive, those are the parts of EU #Copyright rules they want to keep. https://t.co/d2ifZkFcyx

Final vote for Parliament position on the copyright directive with #UploadFilters and #LinkTax: adopted. Parliament has failed to listen to citizens’ and experts’ concerns. #SaveYourInternet pic.twitter.com/gtGi6rg5kL

We can still turn this around! The #linktax and #uploadfilters passed a critical hurdle today. But in just 2 weeks, all 751 MEPs will be asked to take a stand either for or against a free & open internet. The people of Europe managed to stop ACTA, we can #SaveYourInternet again! pic.twitter.com/883ID7CKDE

Some are blaming the EU for the vote for #UploadFilters and #LinkTax, but don’t be fooled: Anti-EU politicians like ENF voted in favour of both articles! Without them, the Link Tax would have been rejected. Now help me #FixCopyright in the plenary vote in July! #saveYourInternet

Article 11, the #LinkTax, has just been adopted by @EP_Legal with a 13:12 majority. We will take this fight to plenary and still hope to overturn the plan. #SaveYourInternet #SaveTheLink pic.twitter.com/XoXx8c5OQl
