Application for exemption from EU Article 13

I don't know how non profit stuff works in the Netherlands but if it's anything like here, it wouldn't work that way. It's really going to depend on who is going to be exempt and who isn't.
If Cliff is lucky he'll be exempt as is.
Also, the Verge is incredibly biased, they know it's going to be incredibly easy to use article 11 and 13 to censor independent political commentators on YouTube and facebook.
The 2nd vote is expected to pass.
I know it's not going to happen but it would be great if a big company like Google or Facebook simply blocked service to the EU.
