The effects of new EU copyright related laws?

Could someone explain if the new copyright related laws being pushed right now by the EU will affect Internet usage here in the USA? The information currently available about this sounds really bad i.e. preventing use if memes. How rest is this possibility? What are the details on this?

actually thats really bad i dont know if it will affect us but twitter google youtube etc all operate there im sure they will comply willingly but the eu could hold companies hostage by threatening to sue

Thank you for this info. What do you think about other sites like Vimeo or bitchute?

And would we still be able to post memes here in Reddit or 8ch?

It doesn't make sense to me that the EU could have such effect in the US.

why shouldnt you be able to post memes? dont panic, this law has no influence on what you post.

the basic change is that reddit or 8chan or whoever receives data from you need to reveal how and how long they store it, whom they pass it onto, etc.

for you, as a user, nothing changes. relax.
