I Don’t Want To Disappear Without A Forewarning.

I don’t want to disappear without a forewarning.

As of July 4th 2018, the Internet as we know it might be dead for good. 

The European Parliament is passing a new Copyright Directive.  Article 13 #CensorshipMachine will impose widespread censorship of all the content we share online. Art, fanfiction, parodies, remixes, mashups, memes, etc.. Anything that you do not hold the rights over will be taken down. 

Article 13 would force all online platforms to police and prevent the uploading of copyrighted content, or make people seek the correct licenses to post that content. Internet platforms hosting large amounts of user-uploaded content must monitor user behaviour and filter their contributions to identify and prevent copyright infringement. 

Such filters will be mandatory for platforms including YouTube, Facebook, Tumblr, Reddit and Instagram, but also much smaller websites.

This doesn’t just affect Europe. The content creators you love are going to be in hot water for sharing their art and writing with you online. Any and all content that doesn’t belong to us will be filtered. Even memes are at risk, as the person who took the original photo may want to file complaints against any platform that allows it to be used without permission. But it goes even further than that.

Last Tuesday (19th June 2018) a group of more than 70 people who have played important roles in building the internet and developing it (Tim Berners-Lee, Vincent Cerf, Jimmy Wales, Mitchell Baker…) into what it is today addressed an open letter to the members of the European Parliament:

“As creators ourselves, we share the concern that there should be a fair distribution of revenues from the online use of copyright works, that benefits creators, publishers, and platforms alike.

But Article 13 is not the right way to achieve this. By requiring Internet platforms to perform automatic filtering all of the content that their users upload, Article 13 takes an unprecedented step towards the transformation of the Internet from an open platform for sharing and innovation, into a tool for the automated surveillance and control of its users. […] The damage that this may do to the free and open Internet as we know it is hard to predict, but in our opinions could be substantial.”

Here is the original Article 13. It’s even scarier. / Link 2 

Here is how to contact your MEPs. 

Here is a full list of everything that will be affected.

Europe is facing a huge problem, and unlike with Net Neutrality, the world doesn’t seem to care.

I feel like what killed Guardians of the Galaxy fandom love was Infinity War and I was just left sorta heartbroken (in a way) and wandered aimlessly to fill the void (with Pacific Rim) and it just didn't get a chance to recover. Maybe it'll come back. I miss you, Guardians of the Galaxy.

Currently working on something

Hey, right now I'm working on a story I'll post. Probably during this week. It'll be the first time that I write a story, that I'll also post so, hope I won't mess it up. Btw, you should probably not read it, if you haven't seen Infinity War yet, cause it'll play a few minutes or so after it.

Spoiler alert

(Do not read if you haven't seen Infinity War yet)

Y'all remember the scene in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol.2, when Rocket knocked Gamora out, because he couldn't see any more of his friends (family) die.

Well, excacly that happened in Infinity War. Probably one of his biggest fears just became true.

I mean, damn it they deserve so much better.

They all had to go through some real shit in their life and then when they actually find some people who makes them feel that they belong somewhere, everything just falls apart again, like they haven't been through enough.

No, they're obviously still not done in letting them suffer some more.

All I ever wanted for them was to be happy, just this crazy family we all love so much stay together, listening to Awesome Mix (well now the Zune), going on who knows what adventures and doin' some weird shit, but now, after the event of Infinity War, we are pretty much at the beginning. Rocket is all alone, his family died and that after he just accept someone in his life.

I just can't get over this.

Spoiler alert Don't read if you haven't seen Infinity War already

At the end of Infinity War Rocket is on terra, a planet he probably knows nothing about 'cept for the story's Quill might have told them, but that story's we're from when he was a kid, before he got taken away by the Ravagers and so much changed over the years, he don't know anyone on terra, well 'cept Thor, but he's not part of his team, not part of his family, the only people who really care for him and accept him and the only people he really cares about.

No, he is stuck in there all alone, probably doesn't even know where to go or what to do.

And there is still the fact that he had to see Groot, his best friend and son die, not just once but twice, right in front of him and that he probably don't even know that the rest of his family died, that he literally lost everything.

I mean just remember ⬇️

Spoiler Alert Don't Read If You Haven't Seen Infinity War Already

I'm sorry if I made things worse, but this are just some of the thoughts I have ever since I saw Infinity War and I just had to get it outta my chest, it's killing me inside.

Some sad thoughts

Guys just imagine, after Endgame, let just say all the Guardians are back at the end and they go back flying into space, and every night when everyone is asleep Rocket sneaks to every room, only to make sure that his family is still there.

Can we talk about the fact that Kraglin isn't with the Guardians in infinity war, so where exactly is he?

There ain't no ravagers around anymore he could stay with. Soo where does he stay during that time and since how long isn't he with them anymore?
