LSR vs Memes

Memes sollen nur noch 128 mal 128 Pixel groß sein – Die Bundesregierung hat einen ersten ‚Diskussionsentwurf‘ für das neue Leistungsschutzrecht veröffentlicht. Dieses schränkt nun auch die Nutzung von Pressefotos und Videos für Memes und Vorschaubilder deutlich ein. … Der neu formulierte Paragraf 87g des Urheberrechtsgesetzes (UrhG) schreibt demnach vor, dass die Überschrift einer Presseveröffentlichung, ‚ein kleinformatiges Vorschaubild mit einer Auflösung von bis zu 128 mal 128 Pixeln‘ und eine „Tonfolge, Bildfolge oder Bild- und Tonfolge mit einer Dauer von bis zu drei Sekunden“ lizenzfrei genutzt werden dürfen. – Nachdem die EU im Frühjahr 2019 ein europaweites Leistungsschutzrecht für Presseverleger beschlossen hatte, müssen die Mitgliedstaaten die Urheberrechtsrichtlinie bis Mitte 2021 umsetzen.“
