These agreements would lock countries into oppressive copyright and patent laws that would hinder people from sharing what they love on the Internet and harm innovation. They would also expand Investor-state dispute settlement (ISDS) systems that place the rights of owners and corporations over the rights of people.
As such it was easy for us to endorse Fight for the Future‘s October 7th Rock Against the TPP Concert. The concert features: Mirah, Debo Band, Taina Asili y La Banda Rebelde, Foundation Movement, bell’s roar, + more. It will be at Spontaneous Celebrations, 45 Danforth Street, Jamaica Plain (Boston) and will run from 6pm to 10pm.
We have long opposed the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP), Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP), and the Trade in Services Agreement (TiSA).
These agreements would lock countries into oppressive copyright and patent laws that would hinder people from sharing what they love on the Internet and harm innovation.
