Stop big tech firms taking your work - email your MP

Tech companies have been helping themselves to the intellectual property and personal data of the creative workforce over the last few years - without the proper consent, transparency and payment. Current enforcement of the copyright and intellectual property law, as well as GDPR regulations, is completely lacking.

The government is now proposing to introduce an exception to the copyright and intellectual property regime. This exception would allow multinational technology companies to scrape creators' work and use it for free in the development and application of Generative AI Models, unless you ‘opt-out’ all of your work in advance.

Equity successfully fought off these plans when they were proposed by the last government, now we must take the fight to this one!

Use our quick email template to ask your MP to raise concerns about this exception in parliament.
