    I’d say that European nations have a different understanding of press freedom. Mind that the individual nations have different attitudes toward this.

    In Germany, press means mainly newspapers. The publishers owning these papers are very keen on copyright enforcement. Copyright does conflict with freedom of information but, I think, most would not see a conflict with press freedom.

    The EU is determined to regulate who is allowed to use data for what purpose and to create the legal tools to enforce that. That’s not limited to copyright. I’m very worried about that trend on many levels.

    But I don’t think Yuri creators will face problems in most EU countries in the foreseeable future.

      But blocking Anna’s Archive, Libgen, OceanofPDF, Z-Library, and the Internet Archive’s Open Library is such a terrible way to express that you hate press.

      Science and academics should be freely pressed, without the authoritarianism of copyright. If my yuri koma was discussing prion synthesis, one shouldn’t deter me for referencing the journal.
