Social Media activity regarding the proposed Copyright in the Digital Single Market Directive
Dear Secretariat General of the European Commission,
Under the right of access to documents in the EU treaties, as developed in Regulation 1049/2001, I am requesting documents which contain the following information:
The staff running the accounts of the European Commission has been engaging on twitter and other channels regarding the effects of Article 13 of the Copyright in the Digital Single Market Directive proposal (for example at https://twitter.com/EU_Commission/status...
https://twitter.com/EU_Commission/status...
https://twitter.com/EU_Commission/status...
https://twitter.com/EU_Commission/status...
https://twitter.com/EU_Commission/status...
https://twitter.com/EU_Commission/status...
https://twitter.com/EU_Commission/status...
and
https://ec.europa.eu/digital-single-mark...)
I am requesting all information concerning these posts, such as:
* Memos, Briefings, protocols of Commission staff, freelancers and other people involved in the social media and press activities. This may include draft responses in written or visual form, guidelines or timetables sent via email or through the Content Management Systems (including the wikis used by the Commission staff).
* Any communication between said people and DG CNECT or Legal Service staff (or other units) on the assessment of the claims concerning article 13 (regardless whether it refers to the Council negotiation mandate, the Commission proposal or the JURI version and its drafts) and memes. This may include draft responses and questions concerning memes, the optional parody exception, ECJ case law, national implementation of exceptions and other topics discussed.
* Any draft or final responses sent out to journalists, scholars, citizens or corporations concerning article 13 (regardless whether it refers to the Council negotiation mandate, the Commission proposal or the JURI version and its drafts) since April 2018.
* "information" or "document" should be understood in a broad sense and shall include images, audiovisual material and animations. I am requesting digital copies of these files, not black-and-white scanned printouts on these.
Yours faithfully,
Julia Reda
