Re: [DFRI-listan] TPP, IPR-kapitlet

Cudos, but we should we or rather do we want to be reliant on: https://wikileaks.org etc.?

Concerning the coverning laws of the EU/US/ASIA or whatever the current name of cartels may be, I was under the impression that we are living under a controlled democracy (as in rule of the people)? With laws and stuff?

How is in charge (rhetorical question)?

Secret Trans-Pacific Partnership Agreement (TPP)

   Today, 13 November 2013, WikiLeaks released the secret negotiated
   draft text for the entire TPP (Trans-Pacific Partnership) Intellectual
   Property Rights Chapter. The TPP is the largest-ever economic treaty,
   encompassing nations representing more than 40 per cent of the world’s
   GDP. The WikiLeaks release of the text comes ahead of the decisive TPP
   Chief Negotiators summit in Salt Lake City, Utah, on 19-24 November
   2013. The chapter published by WikiLeaks is perhaps the most
   controversial chapter of the TPP due to its wide-ranging effects on
   medicines, publishers, internet services, civil liberties and
   biological patents. Significantly, the released text includes the
   negotiation positions and disagreements between all 12 prospective
   member states.

   The TPP is the forerunner to the equally secret US-EU pact TTIP
   (Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership), for which President
   Obama initiated US-EU negotiations in January 2013. Together, the TPP
   and TTIP will cover more than 60 per cent of global GDP.
