26th of March, 2019 will be remembered by European netizens as a day of infamy, because the protests and petitions to save the internet from being heavily censored by corrupt bureaucrats have failed. #WeLost.
Like or dislike them, fan-made villains like Bowsette and Eggette will possibly be censored in EU countries by Article 13, which was often called the "meme killer" by critics. This was why Bowsette and Eggette are portrayed as deceased characters as depicted by their gravestones.
The internet we grew up with and the memes are not really dead, but it will be largely censored rather, especially when the current upload filters are not perfect in identifying copyright infringement, which may result in internet uploads being wrongfully removed, and that is not what netizens want.
Also, this controversial copyright reform could potentially threaten to hinder the spread of the Bible scriptures on the internet as well, as the Bible is one of the most important books in history, and is the reason for the rise of democracy. Therefore, we must find ways to spread the Bible scriptures to the ends of the earth through the internet without violating any copyright whatsoever.
Update: The European Union Copyright Directive came into force, but I am still around. I guess I can continue to be a content creator for now...
