The European Parliament voted to reject the disputed copyright law proposal. This copyright law proposal is considered dangerous to the openness of the Internet. It requires users to generate content for helpful websites to take steps to prevent the publication of copyrighted material, which means that the site will review its content before the user posts, which will threaten online freedom and impose new restrictions on access.
