Personally I'm rooting for the worst possible version of Article 13.
Feed the lawyers, starve the businesses. Make the starkest possible contrast between countries where the lobbyists win, and everyone else. Sometimes you need to get bitten to learn to avoid the snake.
The EU can be to copyright law what Brexit is to internationalism and free trade. A brutal, public, and visible example that completely fucks a major economic player, to the obvious benefit of its neighbors.
The Internet is global. It is much easier to move a digital company than a bricks-and-mortar one, and this would give ample incentive. We will continue connecting the world, continue progressing, and continue making great money doing it. And all the EU citizens will be shut out of that for as long as our government can keep its eyes shut.
Their eyes will open a lot faster under visible economic pain and international embarrassment than they would on the present course.
Yeah, in a way, I hope after this Article 13, we (Europe) get blocked from all major "user generated content" sites such as Facebook, YouTube, Reddit, etc.
