Copyright is a big issue with consequences for both sites like YMS and the members who post. So please read the new rules which come into effect as of midnight morning Athens time on Monday.
Under both EU and US law, copying the content of articles, blogs etc into social media, is actually illegal, except under "fair use". However "fair use" doesn't mean copying more than snippets of articles.
in both jurisdictions, both provide the social media user the ability to quote from articles as long as there is a link to the actual article, blog etc. However that doesn't mean copying large chunks or entire content from other sites.
Effective as of Monday 22nd July 2019 00.01am Athens Time [or 10.01pm London time], any post that has more than one paragraph of another site’s content, will be deemed a breach of EU and US copyright laws.
YMS will deal with these in the following manner.
From this Saturday 20th of July 2019, there will be a grace period of 2 days [48 hours]. Anyone breaching the copyright laws, will be notified by on-site messaging and the member will be advised of this. They will be provided 12 hours to correct the post. Failure to do so will result in the site moderators editing the post.
Beyond the 48 hour grace period i.e. from 10pm London UK time or 00.01am morning Athens Greece time, Monday 22nd of July 2019, any post found on the site that breaches the YMS rules regarding copyright laws, will be automatically edited by the moderators without notice.
For you to draw your own conclusions. Only point I will make is that countries like Australia and the USA have a very mixed population and overall see immigrants as a benefit to society. Strange isn't it
Among them are some of the largest migrant receiving countries in the world: the United States, Germany, the United Kingdom, France, Canada and Australia (each hosting more than 7 million immigrants in 2017).
By contrast, majorities in five countries surveyed – Hungary, Greece, South Africa, R... moreFor you to draw your own conclusions. Only point I will make is that countries like Australia and the USA have a very mixed population and overall see immigrants as a benefit to society. Strange isn't it

mmmm, not so much russia. they are letting people come in and homestead. there is millions of acres for the taking - they also will give you a house, farm equipment and starter money.
really? With Turkey's track record why would anyone be shocked? This shock is a sham I think...anyone with a thinking brain would have seen this coming....the US gave tacit permission t go in and do what they want by abruptly leave the Kurds twisting in the wind! Not shocked from my side.
I know I'm late, but I'm Grateful for the work NCMEC does.. -35-years ago today, on October 19th, 1984, the Call Center for the National Center from Missing & Exploited Children began answering calls .
Since then, our hotline, 1-800-THE-LOST has received more than 4.9 million calls‼️
Happy 35th Anniversary to the NCMEC Call Center
Jacob Wetterling was taken from us 30 years ago on October 22nd.
He is gone and that loss will always be profoundly unfair.
We are thankful for all the hearts that refuse to let the light of Jacob’s Hope burn out. We ask that as you turn on your porch light or lamp this Tuesday to light the way home for all missing people that you also renew your commitment to living out the 11 for Jacob traits.
