How did a year already go by? Last year around this time I started the monthly copyright reads<\/a> and they changed throughout the months. I hope the past year has brought many interesting reads your way and you have enjoyed the small glimpses into Romania. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the Romanian calendar December is known as neios <\/em>meaning snowy, as in general it is the month in which it snows. Well, it used to be before climate change. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Christmas is a big thing in Romania, with many different traditions<\/a> across the country. We would put up the tree on Christmas Eve, and get everything ready for the big meal<\/a> in the evening. Unlike the UK, we would open the Christmas presents in the evening after the meal. Nowadays, being in a relationship with a British man, we tend to mix things up a bit. We combine both Romanian and British traditions<\/a> to make a fusion Christmas, making it our own celebration. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For this last month of the year, we have some interesting reads for you. AI and copyright takes center stage again, as usual. However, we also have some interesting conclusions to court cases, some nature news and last but not least, the UK Government’s response to the AI consultation. Happy reading!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
