</div><div>e due preoccupazioni:</div><div>su art. 11</div><div>
<p><span style="color:rgb(0,0,255)"><span style="font-weight:400">Thanks to SPARC Europe relentlessly pushing to preserve the interests of Europe’s research community, </span><b>academic and scientific publications are excluded</b><span style="font-weight:400"> from the scope of Article 11.</span></span></p><p><span style="color:rgb(0,0,255)"><span style="font-weight:400">Article
2(4d) indeed provides the definition of “press publications” and
exempts periodicals published for scientific or academic purposes.</span></span></p><p><span style="color:rgb(0,0,255)"><span style="font-weight:400">Article
11(1) excludes “private or non-commercial uses of press publications
carried out by individual users.” This is positive for individual
researchers, although the exemption does not explicitly cover uses
carried out by education, research and cultural heritage institutions,
which we had requested in order to safeguard seamless access to
information. The consequences on research are hard to foresee, as
private and non-commercial uses are yet to be given a clear
interpretation, but this is likely to result in a hurdle in access and
sharing of press publications online.</span></span></p><p><span style="color:rgb(0,0,255)"><span style="font-weight:400">Fears
remain that the additional right will deter communication of news,
affect the free flow of information, obstruct online licensing, and
negatively affect authors.</span></span></p>
</div><div>su art. 13 (ex)</div><div>
<p><span style="color:rgb(0,0,255)"><span style="font-weight:400">Fortunately, after continued lobbying efforts, SPARC Europe managed to ensure that </span><b>not-for-profit scientific and educational repositories are exempt</b><span style="font-weight:400">
from the definition of “online content sharing service providers” and
therefore of the scope of Article 13. But the many other platforms used
by researchers will have to abide by the new, highly coercive rules.</span></span></p><p><span style="color:rgb(0,0,255)"><span style="font-weight:400">Generally,
Article 13 creates a costly and burdensome liability regime and risks
hindering digital innovation and user participation. The overall effect
on the sharing and reuse of content is concerning. Given the vast amount
of content online, automated scanning and excluding of content will be
patchy at best and risks running counter to the principle of freedom of
expression embedded in the copyright system. Indeed, many dread that
“filtering” will be unable to spot legitimate uses of works, such as
quotation, parody or criticism.</span></span></p>
