Hacker News doesn't leech the content of the linked site. At most some posts take the title 1:1.


There is no lower limit on what constitutes copyrighted material and what isnt in article 11. A headline would also be copyrighted material, so subject to a license fee. HN would have to pay for a license if it wanted to operate in EU.


Taking the title 1:1 is the policy, unless the title is bad. Also, what about those tl;dr comments people often post? Would that mean HN should pay?
