If freedom of panorama is to be completely prohibited in the European Union, then there exists possibilities of that union preventing the publication of images featuring public artworks and buildings. Such images would be deleted if Europe opposes FOP. }I6ixce93IxI{ 23:48, 3 July 2015 (UTC)

editToday the European Parliament voted about the copyright report, including the subject Freedom of Panorama.
- The negative text by Cavada (Freedom of Panorama only non-commercial in whole EU) was dropped by 502 to 40.
- The positive text by Schaake (full Freedom of Panorama in whole EU) didn't pass by 228 to 303.
- The report as a whole was accepted with 445 to 65 with 32 abstentions.
Thanks everyone, we almost manage to achieve a full swing, which is a very tough feat to get done in 3 weeks.
