Voice of the Internet

Gaming Couch

Episode 37 of Gaming Couch!
Let me take a stab at this whole Article 13 business. For those of you who don't know last Tuesday (March 26th) this big law was passed in Europe with this big concern called 'Article 13'. I want to take a minute to look at this and try my best to break it down and give my opinion on what this means for the internet as a whole. Yeah, it has me a little scared. You know what though? This is the Internet and we are the voice of the Internet. We won't be silenced. It just can't happen.
Below I shared two links to two different articles, one from CNBC and another from CNN, that cover the story. Give it a read. There is plenty of other information out there if you want to do the research.

Also, I need to buy a Switch. I had little interest in getting one until I saw this trailer. I talk about it a bit in the episode (didn't want only share bad things this week) and just wanted to share with you all the beauty of what this game is...and why I need a Switch now.

And good luck everyone. Spring is in the air and I am now dying from my allergies. Take care and stay healthy,
