I'm in Strasbourg, lobbying hard. Updates soon, but was able to talk to Axel Voss, the main guy behind the current (bad) versions of #Art11 and #Art13. Doing my best to #SaveYourInternet.
Lessons from today:
- Pro-Art11/Art13 MEPs do not know how copyright law works (no surprises there, the copyright law is a mess!)
- Wikimedia Commons is a very good example of a service that could suffer very much.
- As during #ACTA, MEPs are not entirely against sitting down and discussing the issues.

On my way to a meeting with a few MEPs. Wish me luck.
These are mostly sympathethic to our cause, but perhaps need a few strong arguments. Hopefully, I can provide that.

@rysiek
the experience you made and what you learned from would be a great theme for a blogpost ;-)

And this concludes our tour of Strasbourg and its labirynth of halls and procedures.
I am on the train back home. I would have stayed longer and worked on #Art11 #Art13 #saveyourinternet more, but could not. :/
This is not the end of the fight. The vote is way too close to call. Every MEP counts. I will be calling them from the train, I would even call them from the plane if it were an option.
Your calls are working. MEPs are changing their minds. I saw this first hand.
You have the power!
