Very well written with good documentation.

'My startup may get sued' is not a good argument against a law.
Sure, you might get sued. That's life. You have to trust the reasonableness of the courts. And don't worry, they won't go after you. The publishers will go after some big fish such as Telegram (which blatantly copies entire articles and strips it of everything but the article). Case law / Jurisprudence / Jurisprudentie / Fallrecht will develop around this issue and everyone will be happy.
And for some, just including a minimal snippet may not be an option. They'll have to pay. That's also life. Journalists and publishers need to eat too. Their work is too important to be allowed to wither.

This is far from 'all things Matrix' then.
What's a computer?
It seems to be targeted at big tech giants specifically. Good luck splitting Alphabet, Facebook and Apple.

They wish.
You severely underestimate us procrastinators. We'd sooner wipe our disk than work. ;-)

As is the case for any programming language.

C++ is designed by its standards committee... If you know anything about the struggles compiler writers have had with implementing the standard, you'd know the standards committee definitely does not consist of compiler writers! It's really cheap to summarize their efforts as motivated by advancing their own job security if you ask me... I can recommend you to attend a meeting or to read some proceedings to convince yourself otherwise.
