"I have to say that the proposed compromise between the Council and Parliament offers no adequate legal safeguards for users. Although the text maintains that the Member States cannot impose restrictions on internet end-users, it does pave the way for consumers to be restricted by access providers without any prior decision by a judicial body. This state of affairs undermines people’s rights. Our group’s amendments aimed at upholding citizens’ rights have not been adopted. Lastly, the package is subject to the ‘law’ of the internal market. It is therefore the European Court of Justice that will decide on ‘conflicts of interest’. Freedom of expression will therefore, in all likelihood, be subject to the law of the internal market, as too many recent examples show. Thanks to strong pressure from users and citizens, user safeguards have been gained, but they remain inadequate in the opinion of the left. We cannot accept dishonest compromises where the citizens’ freedom of expression is concerned."@en1
