The "link tax" is certainly a false claim. Paragraph 1 of Article 11[0] clearly states:

>The protection granted under the first subparagraph shall not apply to acts of hyperlinking.

Also:

>The rights referred to in the first subparagraph shall not apply in respect of uses of individual words or very short extracts of a press publication.
