  • We have this law in Australia and it never made sense to me. Noone is forcing these mega news corps (and Murdoch was a heavy pusher on these laws) to join Facebook and post their news there. Facebook et al drive traffic to the news sites, that otherwise would not have gone there. I think something could be said for preventing amp links, or some other option that ensures the viewer is directed to the true source for a story.

    But this money doesn’t get divided up with smaller news creators either, so the MSM get even more money thrown their way, while smaller, better quality, media continues to struggle with YT demonitisation for covering topics MSM wont, and trying to finance their outlet thru Pateron. It’s a rort, not a true solution.
