EU, Did You Break the Internet? | United States of Europe.
The EU Copyright Directive is like 'The Avengers: Age of Ultron' : The Solution is worse than the Problem. And if it goes through, I won't be able to use that analogy because it's copyrighted. 
Here are some links I hinted at in the video. (I hope I won't have to pay for adding links to the Basic info!)

Hi, I'm Greg Shapiro. Comedian. American. Dutchman. I came to Amsterdam to work with Boom Chicago comedy theater, and I never left. Along the way, I've hosted 'Comedy Central News,' I've written a book 'How to Be Orange,' and I've worked side by side with Boom Chicago alumni such as Seth Meyers, Jordan Peele and Jason Sudeikis. 

Yes, I'm the voice of Trump in the 'Netherlands Second' video from 'Zondag Met Lubach,' with 50 million views. 

I'm now working on a 'Daily Show for the EU' called 'United States of Europe.' And I'm co-host of 'The Amsterdam Comedy Podcast.' It's all free. Please subscribe! It really helps.
