This is the second comment formatted in a very similar way, responding to the same points in the same way. Having learned about troll farms, I have to wonder how many HN accounts are run by people sitting in cubes, posting talking points and paid by the corporate lobbyists who are pushing these laws through the EU parliament. teamhappy, your arguments make no sense. Obtaining a license to quote a news article? YouTube's content filtering held up as an example of a system that works well? These are ridiculous statements. I hope you are getting paid well and don't really believe this stuff.
