*Hungary steps up anti-immigration stance with plans for NGO tax*

"The Hungarian government has stepped up its anti-immigration measures with plans to introduce a 25% tax on aid groups it says support migration. … After the election, Orbán’s government swiftly resubmitted a bill aimed at criminalising aid to #migrants and threatening activists with jail terms."

"It's been a long tradition here on Techdirt to show examples of politicians and political parties pushing for stricter, more draconian, copyright laws are often found violating those same laws. But the French Rassemblemant National (National Rally Point) party is taking this to new levels -- whining about the enforcement of internet filters, just as it's about to vote in favor of making such filters mandatory."

It's about group dynamics, especially on the internet, and what you need to be able to overcome the tendencies of groups to self-destruct.

In a week's time, the EU will be voting on #Article13.
If you live in the EU and do anything online that involves any amount of copyrighted content (i.e. everyone), then you should push your country's MEPs to say no to Article 13.
Art 13 is a danger to creativity and free speech as algorithms would have trouble telling the difference between infringement and legal use of copyrighted material for research, fair use, etc.
