European Parliament has approved new copyright laws on Tuesday that are confusing consumers.
The laws call for an overhaul of the bloc’s copyright laws that makes platforms like Google’s YouTube responsible for infringements committed by their users.
It will shift responsibility for protecting the rights of artists and writers directly to the platforms.
Tech companies have slammed the new laws saying the law is vague and badly written.
Hayleigh Bosher, an intellectual property law professor at Brunel University, says, "[This] places burdens on the platforms that are basically unachievable."
