Proceeding with TPP

jeudi 23 novembre 2017 à 01:00

Countries other than the US are foolishly proceeding with the TPP or Pacific Partnership Trance.

They have tentatively dropped the chapter that bears the incoherent label of "intellectual property", but they have kept many other harmful rules, worst of all the ISDS ("I Sue Democratic States") provision that gives foreign companies more rights than citizens.

If you are a citizen of New Zealand, please agitate against signing the TPP as long as it contains ISDS.

The EFF article encourages the confusion of the term "intellectual property" by using it as if it had a coherent meaning. Please take care not to do that.
