Most politicians did listen, and for now the link tax has been defeated! 
From Wikipedia:
"On 20 June 2018, the European Parliament Committee on Legal Affairs finalised their amendments to the directive and put them toward the parliament for negotiation.[21] However, MEPs voted on 5 July 2018 not to proceed to the negotiation stage, but instead to reopen the directive for debate in September 2018.[8][7] There were 318 votes to re-open debate, 278 to proceed, and 31 abstentions."
This gives more time for discussion and talking to MEPs.
