Article 17: Both French and Dutch Implementation Proposals Lack Key User Rights Safeguards

[Communia Association] As of January 2020 there are two Member States that have published legislative proposals for the implementation of Article 17 CDSM... These first implementation proposals are coming from a main proponent of Article 17 (France) and one of the most vocal opponents (Netherlands), and allow us to get a first impression of how Member States across the EU are likely going to deal with this controversial article. Irrespective of the different positions by France and the Netherlands during the directive negotiations, the implementation proposed by both Member States do not diverge much from each other.
