LOS ANGELES: YouTube CEO Susan Wojcicki is warning that the European Union’s recent copyright legislation is putting digital creators’ livelihoods at stake – and she issued a call for YouTubers to voice their opposition to the proposed rules.
The EU Parliament’s “Article 13 as written threatens to shut down the ability of millions of people – from creators like you to everyday users – to upload content to platforms like YouTube”, Wojcicki wrote in a blog post Oct 22 that is the latest in a series of her regular updates to the YouTube community.
