TPP Is Worse Than SOPA, Pipe & ACTA?

Lordsutan-For those who don't know about TPP, this is the agreement made by the u.s. with 8 other countries in the Pacific, including Peru, Chile, New Zealand, Australia, Singapore, Malaysia, Brunei Darussalem and Viet Nam.


This considered harmful is a process of negotiation an agreement was kept secret to the public.Confidentiality is used to try to isolate the negotiation process from the wider stakeholder and public input, and is mainly driven by the USTR.

Such a debate was the last show, there's a Sopa interests much more that needs to be taken into account in the legislation of intellectual property.


Is very important to note that this agreement does not only hurt the Internet; they influence global relationships and physical trade. While the Internet is an important part of regulation, we must keep in mind the impact outside of our digital playground.


The next round of negotiations will be held in Australia in March. again, it is important to note that it can be changed.Until the World Government decided that it's smart business to include their citizens in any international agreement, we will not know much of this other agreement or could be around the corner.

Free trade and foreign investment liberalisation places environmental sustainability, healthcare, education, and the well being of the local population at a lower priority to being ‘internationally competitive’. It has increased inequality both within and between nations, and has made democratically elected governments powerless to take bold steps towards sustainability and social development.


In practice free trade deals often have other deals tied in with them such as foreign investment and intellectual property. From what gets liberalised and what doesn’t, it is quite clear that many free trade deals are aimed at exploiting the poor. Free trade deals usually mean:
• Tariffs must be reduced or removed but subsidies are still allowed.
• Capital must be allowed to flow more freely between countries but governments are still allowed to restrict the flow of labour into their country.
• Patents extend beyond the borders of their country of origin.
