hey! Hey YOU!

now that i have your attention…

i have to preface this post by saying that im american. as an american on this website with mostly american-oriented content, i know little of what is happening elsewhere in the world. recently, however, i have noticed that europe is having some issues - specifically issues regarding censorship of the internet.

now, do you wanna know why i prefaced this with ‘im american?’

because the only people that i’ve seen talking about this aren’t americans, but distressed europeans

i don’t know much about the situation, unfortunately. my understanding is that the EU wants to pass two articles that control how copyrighted information is passed on the internet. however, instead of slightly tightening their copyright laws, they seem to want to go to the extreme and censor any content that europeans produce and consume.

now think of how this could affect us, as the jse community.

sean, obviously, is european. born and raised in ireland, moved to the uk in 2017. he has dedicated 6 years of his life to uploading gaming videos and sketch comedies on youtube just for us, to build this wonderful and loving community.

if the EU decides to pass these articles?

shit is going to change, fam

thankfully, sean is in a position as to where he might not get as fucked over by this as others will, but it will still hurt. it will hurt him, as he loves this job and it will force him to find work elsewhere. it will hurt robin, who has been helping sean with his videos, especially the ego content, since 2016. it will hurt many of sean’s friends on youtube (pewdiepie, kickthepj, emma blackery, etc.)

most importantly?

it will hurt us, as sean’s audience.

i don’t know many people within the community, but i have heard stories. stories told through pax panels, stories shared in videos, stories shared across tumblr and twitter. i know sean means a lot to a lot of people out there. he is the reason they smile, the reason they want to get out of bed and live their lives. and i know that without having sean around, it might tremendously impact them. it might cut them off from friends they’ve made online, job opportunities they have because of sean, having a loving, supportive community to come to when their mental health might be in a shitty place, etc.

so why do i want your attention?

because of my position as a non-european, i know little about what is happening in europe and what i should do to help. but i know there are millions of people out there that can help.

i have four requests to ask of you guys, as a member of the jse community and the internet.

1. we need to signal boost the hell out of this to get sean’s attention. if we can get his attention, he can make a video about it, which will spread more awareness and encourage more europeans to take action.

2. i would like if anybody could update this post with information that we can give to sean and others. the more accurate, up-to-date, and easily explainable the information is, the better.

3. i would like to encourage europeans to take action besides signing internet petitions. go out, talk to your governments about this. write them letters. make calls. protest. make. some. noise. the more noise we make, the more we could sway them in our favor.

4. i would appreciate it if anybody could signal boost the hell out of this in general, as members of the jse community and internet. the more attention we can draw to this issue, the more lives we could help impact and (hopefully) improve.

you guys helped us americans when we we going through our net neutrality crisis.

now it’s our turn, as non-europeans, to help you through yours.

(sincere apologies if some information is outdated. i’m trying to work on this post as fast as i can with recently updated info and quite frankly, i’m not sure what to look for. i just hope this helps)

Please don’t fucking log off tumblr on the 17th as a protest. All that’s going to do is give tumblr more reason to shut this place down because of revenue loss.
