Microsoft and Europe's Publishers are calling for an Australian-style arbitration mechanism in Europe to remunerate press publishers fairly for use of content with the Coalition for Content Provenance and Authenticity (C2PA).

The C2PA was
established to address the prevalence of disinformation, misinformation and online content fraud through developing technical standards for certifying the source and history or provenance of media content. Founding members Adobe, Arm, BBC, Intel, Microsoft and Truepic seek to establish a standardized provenance solution with the goal of combating misleading content.

Quick skim, and I do not see anything about remmuneration?

I found another piece on this from Microsoft
Europe’s press publishers and Microsoft today agreed to work together on a solution to ensure that Europe’s press publishers get paid for the use of their content by gatekeepers that have dominant market power in line with the objectives of the new neighbouring right in the EU Digital Single Market Copyright Directive, which comes into force this June and to take inspiration from the new Australian legislation that requires the tech gatekeepers covered by that law to share revenue with news organisations.
