Trading Away our Digital Rights: More Nations Join TPP as the Next Round of Negotiations Approach

I have been interested in the Trans Pacific Partnership for a bit now and think it deserves all our attention. I believe it is an issue (like Food Freedom) that can bring Left/Right, Blue/Red paradigms together.

We need to find common cause we progress is to be made to a better life for us all.

With the next round of SECRET talks coming up soon, I'd like to heard what ATSers have to say and teach me about this important issue. Please lead me to an understanding of this SECRET trade deal with resources.

The next round of Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) agreement negotiations will take place from December 3-12 in Auckland, New Zealand, and it will be done with the same level of secrecy as the last 14 rounds. And like all of the previous rounds of talks, it will take place in a luxury venue, only this time in a high-end casino, that itself is embroiled in its own controversy over corrupt dealings.
