uploadfilter

Simple upload filter script for Article 13 of EU copyright reform.

This is example code and not for any production usage!

This is more a demonstration of how an upload filter could work.

  • security checks missing
  • some logical checks missing, see code comments

How it works

All content uploaded will trigger 1-n emails to EU representatives with an exclusive token link to access and review the content. The validation of the content is stored in a database, so you can look-up if a file is validated as copyright free or a copyright infringement is reported. Based on this data, you can publish or block the content on your plattform.

Requirements

  • php
  • php sqlite3 extension

Setup

  • import email adresses from EU representative to the emails table
  • adresses can be found on https://saveyourinternet.eu/act/
  • change configuration in db.php and email template to your needs
  • path to files should not be accessible from web

Usage

  • content is uploaded to upload.php and triggers database entries and token emails
  • to make the file accessible on your platform, review it's validation status in validations table; publishing of mapping of who validated which content is also possible
