CJEU backs publisher remuneration rules for online press use

Online platforms must treat publisher-use negotiations as a regulated workflow

Change
The CJEU held that EU law allows Member States to require online service providers to negotiate and disclose information for fair remuneration when using press publishers’ publications online, subject to limits on authorisation choice and contractual freedom.
Why it matters
The judgment supports national press-publisher remuneration regimes under Article 15 of the Copyright Directive. Platforms using press publications may face good-faith negotiation, information-disclosure and regulator-supervised compensation processes. The limits are important: publishers must retain authorisation choice, payment must relate to actual or intended use, and authorities cannot bind the parties’ contractual freedom beyond EU-law boundaries.

Clarify™ · Grounded, not generic

Why not a general AI assistant?

A general assistant will answer almost anything — including beyond what it actually knows, which is where drift and hallucination come from. Ask it the same question twice and you can get two different answers — no good when you need a record you can stand behind.

Clarify™ works differently. It answers only from the specific brief in front of you and its cited primary source. Ask something the brief doesn’t cover and it says so, rather than inventing an answer — and the same question returns a consistent, grounded answer every time. The trade-off is deliberate: narrower, but defensible enough to act on.
