Nintendo has already blocked people from using their games in reviews an let’s play videos ..

As such we already have a precedent of what ip owners can do using current laws

The new eu laws are going to make this the standard for any content publisher who can’t afford the resources for a content filter.

Google is going to get even more aggressive in its use of dmca features

.technically this isn’t a law yet because national laws need to be passed first  iirc the deadline is two years from now  And like the cookie wall everyone will wait until the last minute to do something.

However I expect a zero tolerance policy from smaller platforms they can’t afford the fines..

This is what happens when technically incompetent politicians create laws that are in favor of old  media who refuse to understand the need to match copyright to modern media consumption

The interner as we knew it will be dead once this stupid set of laws is in effect

Brexit won’t help.
