This law essentially gives special rights to corporate news websites. It allows them to have the benefits of being public source (indexing, sharing, previews, accessibility etc.) but they can choose not to bare the costs of public information. This shitty law should have been a copyright framework ammendment that applies to all IP but instead it's a clear example of regulatory capture.
What do you mean they can choose not to bear the costs of public information?
Every law ever created should have been better
