TPP OP Posts

Topic OP:
>Information
Obama just signed a law allowing him to fast track TPP and other "trade agreements", allowing him to accept it with just a simple majority.

>What is the TPP?
The Trans-Pacific Partnership is a disastrous trade agreement designed to protect the interests of the largest multi-national corporations at the expense of workers, consumers, the environment and the foundations of American democracy. It will also negatively impact some of the poorest people in the world.

Here are the list of nations that will be affected by the TPP:
United States, Japan, Mexico, Canada, Australia, Malaysia, Chile, Singapore, Peru, Vietnam, New Zealand and Brunei.

>TPP threatens fair use
https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2012/08/new-leaked-tpp-puts-fair-use-risk
From chan culture to youtubers, this could make bethesda's paid mods something you'd call "good old times".

>TPP will allow a corporation to sue a state over potential losses caused by its legislation
This won't happen in a court of your own country, this will place an international court above your laws. Consumer rights, from food to your favourite hobby, will be raped mercilessly. Think it's bad now? You haven't seen anything.

>TPP will make it easier to outsource labor in Asia
From governmental contracts to code monkeys trough services, you will be competing with third-world slave labor and buying its products. Should you be able to afford it and have some free time as your working hours get closer to those of Vietnam.

>AHAHAH I will still be pirating stuff anyway
No you won't. TPP can force your ISP to monitor your activity, and fine you or even send you to jail. It will be possibile to fine you even just for copying a DVD you own to your hard drive. It's SOPA and all that shit right back from the dead.

>I don't believe you OP, I want to read what it says!
Well too fucking bad, because it isn't just secret, it will remain secret for four years after it's accepted. Talk about transparency. However a small part has been leaked, you can read more here:

>I'm in EU, who gives a shit!
TTIP is the same shit EU-flavoured and it's going to hurt you.

>What is the TTIP?
TTIP - the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership - is being negotiated between the European Union and the United States. In the case of the EU,the European Commission is at the negotiating table.

The Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) is a comprehensive treaty currently being negotiated – in secret – between the European Union and the USA. As officials from both sides acknowledge, the main goal of TTIP is to remove regulatory ‘barriers’ which restrict the potential profits to be made by transnational corporations on both sides of the Atlantic.

Yet these ‘barriers’ are in reality some of our most prized social standards and environmental regulations, such as labour rights, food safety rules, regulations on the use of toxic chemicals, digital privacy laws and even new banking safeguards introduced to prevent a repeat of the 2008 financial crisis. The stakes, in other words, could not be higher.

This booklet, written by John Hilary, explains what TTIP is and how it will affect the lives of all of us if it comes into force.

> What you can do:
Next post I'll be posting the names of the senators that voted for this. Beside bothering them, you can get #TPP trending and start making some noise. Don't go down without a fight.

Get ready, because the final negotiations have begun.
