ATTENTION

We are joining the German, Czech, Danish, and Slovak-language Wikipedias and many other sites across the Internet in a blackout protest against Articles 11, 12, and 13 of the European Union's proposed copyright reform for the digital single market. These changes to law pose a grave threat to freedom of expression on the Internet:

The right to link and cite news sources freely is threatened (a so-called link tax);
The right to just compensation for Internet-based journalists is at risk;
The ability to host user-generated content inside the EU (such as wikis) is threatened with required automatic filtering (so-called censorship machines, or copyright filters).

We are urging all citizens of the European Union to contact their MEPs and to protest in live street demonstrations which have been scheduled throughout Europe for Saturday, March 23.
