OPERATION: Trans Pacific Shitstorm Leader 07/31/15 (Fri) 00:21:23 e03a75 No. 240737
The TPP is coming people
This deal has been in the shadows for months, but we have one clean shot to kill it for good. The Bill does have a 60-public reading period where criticisms have a chance to flourish against the bill. Our mission:
WE MUST OVERREACT IMMEDIATELY
We've only scrapped the surface of how much of our shit this can kill (online downloads, mods, chans, doujiins, cosplay,…list goes on) on top of corporations being able to sue governments more liberally. This is SOPA and PIPA back and worse than it's ever been.
Fight the good fight, email your senators, post on social media, trend a hashtag, don't let a single politcian think they can keep their chair touching this

I'm from one of the other 8 countries. I'm 27. I have asked my parents, my boss, co workers, extended family, a large proportion of my friends about tpp..etc
Most of them have no idea what it is, a couple said it was something to do with pirating music, and one said "oh America is always passing silly laws, don't worry about it.
I did my very best not to sperg out and tried to explain simply. Not one of them cared.

Most people don't care about things until it personally affects them. TPP isn't being called out in the mainstream media (which the average person still trusts) and it's not currently hurting them so they think everything is okay. They'll only start to bitch when it starts ruining their everyday lives but by then it will be too late to do anything.

Conservatives rush to resolve TPP auto-parts impasse before election
>Even six weeks into the Canadian election campaign, though, Ottawa continues to try to resolve this impasse. The Conservatives are still looking for a way to sign a deal during the writ period, when federal party leaders are under intense pressure to demonstrate how they would create jobs and spur economic growth.
Sources say Canada is making plans to meet the United States, Japan and Mexico next week for what could be the last chance to resolve the deadlock on autos in time to wrap up an overall trade deal before the election. The location and exact dates of these negotiations are still being worked out, but the U.S. will play host to the meeting.
>Japan, among the most influential players in the 12-country TPP talks, is right now pushing hard for a final meeting of negotiating countries to wrap up a deal, an accord that has been billed as the biggest free-trade deal in history and one that Mr. Harper warned Canada could not afford to pass up. It would lower trade barriers between countries comprising 40 per cent of annual global economic output.
>Negotiators for Canada, Mexico, Japan and the United States met in Washington last week, but sources say Tokyo’s envoys displayed no willingness to compromise on the lower domestic- content rules for autos and auto parts reached by the Americans and Japanese.
The problem, as two Washington trade experts wrote this month, is the TPP as it stands would erode the preferential position enjoyed by Canadian and Mexican auto-parts makers under the North American free-trade agreement.
It's going to erode allot more then that.
>“The negotiated advantages that Canadian and Mexican auto-parts producers currently enjoy under NAFTA could be wiped away by a TPP agreement that would extend the same benefits to at least nine other countries,” say David R. Hamill and Birgit Matthiesen with Washington-based Arent Fox LLP.
>Now, however, the math works against Mr. Harper, who would want to brandish a TPP deal as evidence of his economic policy at work. And it threatens the jobs of more than 80,000 Canadians working in the auto-parts sector – a mainstay of Canada’s value-added manufacturing sector.
>One of the major irritants both for Canada and Mexico, but also for Japan, is that Washington had assured Tokyo before Hawaii that it could sell this reduction in domestic-content rules to its NAFTA partners. “The anger against the Americans for hatching something they couldn’t deliver on is still palpable,” a source familiar with negotiations said of the Japanese.
>Walking away from the table is one option for Canada. But a Canadian government official, who asked for anonymity because they wished to speak more bluntly than they could normally during an election period, said that’s not in the cards.
>“Negotiators continue to push for a strong agreement that will protect and respect the integrated structure of the automotive industry, but we can’t understate the importance of Canada being a part of a final agreement. Walking away would be disastrous for our auto industry, and thousands of Canadian workers and their families.”
>NDP Leader Thomas Mulcair has waded into the TPP debate during the campaign, pledging an NDP government would fight for stronger rules in the Trans-Pacific Partnership accord to protect homegrown manufacturing. His staff later explained the NDP would seek to preserve the 60-per-cent-plus NAFTA content rules for autos.
Liberal Leader Justin Trudeau has said he supports a deal, but has criticized the Harper government for being too secretive about what was being negotiated.

OBAMA REACHES OUT TO MEXICO TO SEAL TPP
LEAVES CANADA IN THE DUST
https://archive.is/IHJFL
>U.S. President Barack Obama is reaching out to his Mexican counterpart, Enrique Pena Nieto, as Washington launches a charm offensive to close a massive Pacific Rim trade deal next week.
>As of Thursday afternoon, he had not made a similar call to Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper.
>There’s rising concern, meanwhile, in Canada’s 80,000-job auto-parts manufacturing sector that the Trans-Pacific Partnership could seriously harm the industry.
>The White House announced Thursday that Mr. Obama called the Mexican President on Wednesday regarding Trans-Pacific Partnership talks to discuss “the importance of bringing the negotiations to a swift conclusion.” Mr. Harper’s staff said the Conservative Leader had not received a phone call from the White House.
>Both Canada and Mexico, NAFTA partners with the United States, are standing in the way of of a TPP deal because of a dispute with Japan over how much of each auto or car part can be made overseas and still qualify to be sold in North America without duties under the Trans-Pacific Partnership.
>Mexico, though, is arguably a far more vital auto-sector ally for Mr. Obama in his quest to seal a TPP deal. Mexico ranks second behind the United States and ahead of Canada in annual auto production, and its output is growing every year. The country once considered the junior partner in NAFTA will be producing five million vehicles annually by 2020, while Canadian output is expected to be about two million vehicles.
>Japan, one of the most influential players in the 12-country TPP talks, has so far refused to give ground on rules in the proposed accord that could hurt the Canadian and Mexican auto sectors.

Canada heralds progress toward TPP deal
>ATLANTA - The Canadian government is eager enough to complete a historic trade agreement this week that the country's lead minister has no idea when he'll be back home campaigning in the federal election.
>In his first full day at the meetings that could ultimately clinch the 12-country Trans-Pacific Partnership, Ed Fast said he's willing to stay as long as it takes.
>He said he doesn't yet have a return plane ticket to British Columbia where he's in a re-election fight because, he says, completing the deal is critical to Canada's economy.
>"What I can say is that Canada is prepared to negotiate, to stay here until we have a deal," the international trade minister said Wednesday.
>"We believe we are on track to do so."
>He insisted that he's also willing to walk away if necessary: "I can't prejudge whether there will be a deal this weekend… We are only going to sign a deal that is in our national interest."
>Some countries are expressing a sense of urgency that a deal be completed now before several governments involved in the talks face uncertain re-election campaigns, starting with Canada's.
>But the biggest impending concern for TPP proponents is the fast-approaching U.S. presidential primaries, which could play havoc with attempts to get the agreement ratified in Congress.
>The Canadian government faces the dual pressure of having to run a campaign at the same time. While Fast chats about dairy and auto quotas in Atlanta, his colleagues back home are weighing the potential impact in dozens of ridings that could hold the key to Conservative re-election chances.
>The government left the last talks dismayed by a surprise Japan-U.S. agreement that would have upended auto-production, with tariffs eliminated on cars that primarily use cheaper parts from non-TPP countries like China.
>Fast called the last proposal unacceptable. He added Wednesday that there has been movement since the failed round in July: "We have continued to make progress," he said.
>But the Canadian government also desperately wants to change the conversation.
>It's attempting to steer attention toward companies and industries enthused by the TPP. It hopes those voices drown out some of the skeptics: the auto-workers union warning of lost middle-class jobs, and the dairy farmers urging against even a one-per-cent increase in foreign cheese imports.
>The government has been circulating quotes from supportive stakeholders in multiple industries: mining, seafood, pork, cattle, and even from the bigger auto-parts companies with foreign plants.
>One enthusiastic stakeholder is the Canadian beef industry. It predicts exports to Japan could potentially triple if tariffs fall as low as reported in Japanese media.
>John Masswohl said the industry shipped $100 million to Japan last year — and lost almost 40 per cent in duties. But that's not the biggest issue: It's that Australia is gnawing away at everyone else's market share, he said, because it already has a tariff-reduction deal with Japan.
>"It's a bad scenario for us if there is no TPP because Australia's rate continues to get lower and lower," said Masswohl, director of government relations for the Canadian Cattlemen's Association.
>in Quebec and Ontario, the concerns of dairy farmers have received widespread media coverage. Those two provinces also happen to produce more than half of Canada's hogs.
>And the pork producers are delighted.
>Martin Rice of the Canadian Pork Council predicted that joining the TPP would increase the $1 billion in pork exports to Japan by more than 30 per cent within four years.
>He warned that the exact opposite would happen if the TPP happens without Canada.
>"Our processors just wouldn't be able to compete anymore," he said.
>Expect to hear arguments like those from the Conservative party repeatedly in the last weeks of the federal election, should an agreement come together in Atlanta.
>Another emerging debate has to do with transparency. The deal is being negotiated in secret; the final text might not even be made public before Canadians vote; and the government hasn't involved opposition parties despite the fact that one of them might actually have to implement the deal if they win Oct. 19.
>Fast said Canada would push for the full text to be released instantly. He offered no guarantee when asked about consulting his election opponents.
>By Alexander Panetta, The Canadian Press

TPP: Deal close, dairy the last big issue
>ATLANTA - Negotiators have taken a big step toward an historic agreement that would knock down trade barriers on four continents while opening important sectors to greater foreign competition.
>A Trans-Pacific Partnership deal could be announced Saturday if negotiators clear the final hurdles including the tallest remaining one involving Canada: dairy import limits.
>The broad contours of a deal are mostly sketched out. Canadian exporters of beef, pork, canola, grains, machinery, medical devices, minerals, seafood, aeronautics and other products would have greater tariff-free access to 11 countries including Japan, Vietnam, Australia and Peru.
>Now those countries are knocking on Canada's door.
>They've demanded a greater presence in two areas that have historically supported good-paying jobs: the auto sector, and dairy. A deal on auto parts is mostly done, according to various stakeholder groups watching the negotiations. The final fight turns to Canada's grocery shelves, where importers want more than the meager 10-per-cent space set aside for foreign milk and cheese.
>That politically sensitive issue remains one of the few obstacles to completing a pact that would cover 40 per cent of the world's GDP, including some fast-growing economies and additional countries already angling to join.
>"I'm pretty optimistic it will come together (this weekend) — 80-20," said Alan Wolff, a former U.S. negotiator who now leads the American National Foreign Trade Council, a commercial association.
>"But because it's a negotiation there could always be a holdup."
>That's exactly what happened at the last round in Maui. Canadian and Mexican negotiators were blindsided by a Japan-U.S. deal that would have doubled the allowance for cheaper car parts without tariffs from Japanese suppliers in non-TPP countries like China and Thailand.
>Those differences appear to have been settled.
>The hallway chatter from industry lobbyists at the convention site suggested the percentages for import thresholds might not differ significantly from the Maui offer — with perhaps a five-per-cent change for parts. But it's expected that new exceptions will be built into the agreement for different types of parts, limiting the scope of the change.
>Canada's envoy to the talks wouldn't talk percentages. He also said some details still must be worked out. But International Trade Minister Ed Fast confirmed Friday that major moves had been made.
>"There's still some work left to be done," said Fast.
>"But we're optimistic that issue can be solved and we'll have an outcome that will support our Canadian auto sector and ensure its long-term viability in Canada."
>The autoworkers' union fears the loss of middle-class jobs. But some Canadian parts manufacturers are enthusiastic about the opportunity to grow an international presence.
>Fast used more guarded language on dairy. Of that, he said: "There's still lots of work to be done."
>The Canadian government faces domestic pressure from dairy-producing provinces, who are not at the negotiating table but have provincial representatives in Atlanta pushing against any opening to foreign milk and cheese.
>Canada isn't the only country with domestic pressure: the American delegation has received a public letter from influential lawmakers urging it to walk away unless it can secure certain gains for American businesses.
>But the biggest U.S. business lobby is urging a deal now.
>It says the decade-long TPP project could be destroyed by domestic politics if it doesn't happen immediately, with elections in Canada, then the U.S., Japan and Peru next year and governments under pressure to protect individual sectors.
>"If we miss this opportunity I believe we may lose it forever," said Tami Overby, vice-president at the U.S. Chamber of Commerce.

>"We have the Canadian election. No one knows what that outcome's going to be. We also get closer to the U.S. 2016 (presidential race) — that gets harder. So from my perspective nothing gets better. But the risk increases, and in some cases quite significantly as time goes by."
>As if to underscore her point, NDP Leader Tom Mulcair announced Friday that he wouldn't consider himself bound to ratify any deal reached during the election campaign.
>Overby encouraged all countries to put some of the proverbial water in their wine.
>For Canada, that wine comes with a little more foreign cheese.
>She said New Zealand hasn't asked for much. But it helped spearhead the TPP project years ago, with its one major demand being access to dairy markets.
>Other Canadian industries are thrilled at the prospect of a deal.
>The head of Canada's pro-free-market agriculture group said he expects a nine-per-cent increase in canola exports alone, with big gains for other industries including pork, beef and barley.
>"We're extremely optimistic for our sector," said Brian Innes of the Canadian Agri-Food Trade Alliance, and vice-president of the Canola Council.
>"We face significant trade barriers, this is the most ambitious deal in decades, and it could have a major impact on our ability to export."

Trade Officials Announce Conclusion of TPP—Now the Real Fight Begins
Trade officials have announced today that they have reached a final deal on the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP). Their announcement came after a drawn out round of negotiation in Atlanta, Georgia, which was mainly held up around disagreements over medicine patent rules and tariffs over autos and dairy.
We have no reason to believe that the TPP has improved much at all from the last leaked version released in August, and we won't know until the U.S. Trade Representative releases the text. So as long as it contains a retroactive 20-year copyright term extension, bans on circumventing DRM, massively disproportionate punishments for copyright infringement, and rules that criminalize investigative journalists and whistleblowers, we have to do everything we can to stop this agreement from getting signed, ratified, and put into force.
The fact that close to 800 million Internet users' rights to free expression, privacy, and access to knowledge online hinged upon the outcome of squabbles over trade rules on cars and milk is precisely why digital policy consideration do not belong in trade agreements. Hollywood, other major publishers and even big tech companies have taken advantage of this secretive, corporate-captured process to pass rules that they could not otherwise get away with in an open, participatory process. The Fast Track trade bill, which passed in the U.S. this summer, was a critical piece in the White House's toolkit to getting this terrible deal passed through Congress with little oversight. And yet there's an upside to that bill—which is that it may succeed in mucking up the TPP end game.
Despite all of Fast Track's faults, it imposed on the White House a timeline for it to finalize, sign, and ratify agreements that uses this expedited trade approval mechanism. This includes a mandate that at a minimum, a 90-day notice period must be given before the President signs the agreement. Thirty days after that notice the text must be posted publicly online—so there's still about a month when the U.S. trade officials can claim to have a final text and give notice, but not really have a text. President Obama will give a notice to Congress in order to get the clock running on these Fast Track requirements. If so, the White House will be required by law to publish the final text publicly, online in 30 days. A failure to do so could be a violation of this Fast Track-mandated timeline. (More detailed analysis on this timeline can be found on Public Citizen's website.)
As we continue to fight this toxic, corporate-captured trade deal, we need to remember this fact: laws made in secret, with no public oversight or input, are illegitimate. If we're to defend one of the fundamental pillars of modern government, that law should transparently reflect the will of the people, we need to fight back against an agreement that so flagrantly disregards the democratic process.
We will soon see what's actually in this agreement. At long last, the White House won't be able to hide behind the secrecy. And as long as there remains any threat to the Internet and our rights online, EFF, alongside a massive coalition of public interest organizations, will be mobilizing to kill this agreement dead once and for all.

Additional TPP News:
EFF was one of 17 U.S.-based transparency and open government organizations that sent a letter to U.S. Trade Representative (USTR) Michael Froman calling into question his agency's appointment of their own general counsel to become their new transparency officer. This new USTR officer is a position that was mandated by the Fast Track legislation that passed by a narrow vote this past summer.
The Society of American Archivists has released a strong statement in opposition to the TPP over its copyright provisions for potentially damaging archivists and researchers.

Shut up defeatist fag. A few years ago when George Bush and Ted Kennedy and John McCain tried to pass their amnesty for illegal immigrants the Congress refused:
http://www.anncoulter.com/columns/2015-07-29.html
> Washington has tried to sneak through three amnesties in the last decade – in 2006, 2007 and 2013. Each time, amnesty had the full support of the media, the White House, leaders of both political parties, big campaign donors and lobbyists.
> And every time, as soon as the public got wind of what was happening, the politicians scattered like roaches and the loudest amnesty proponent in the room would suddenly be demanding "border security first!"
> The McCain-Kennedy amnesty passed the Senate in 2006, instantly inspiring an outpouring of voter anger so virulent that it shut down the congressional switchboards.

Newsflash, democracy does not mean that people get any kind of actual power, its just mean they get to chose who rules them next couple of years in the most anal way.
In its core people supposed to chose a person they trust from their circle that will hold ideals of their electors dear but for the long time we dont chose a candidate from our own, we chose a few selected ones who are so above us that its basically a different cast at this point.
Modern day politics are basically king family, we just chose different member every few years, dont expect them to do anything for the people, its not in their interest anyway.

Vox shilling TPP to the max
These guys are truly the scum of the earth.
What Bernie Sanders gets wrong about Obama’s trade deal
https://archive.is/G3jLd
>"The TPP would allow foreign corporations to sue federal, state, and local governments in an international tribunal for passing an increase in the minimum wage or any other law that could hurt expected future profits," Sanders says.
Which can happen if laws and policies are changed.
So they find a shill to weasel around the facts:
>I asked Gary Hufbauer, a trade expert at the Peterson Institute for International Economics, about Sanders's comments. He was not impressed.
>"I don’t know if he’s read the agreement or the text of the investment chapter," Hufbauer sighed. "But this is just bunk."
Your shill opinion.
>Sanders was wrong on both ends, Hufbauer said. For one thing, ISDS covers discriminatory regulations — but an increase in a minimum wage law wouldn't discriminate between foreign and domestic companies.
Which is irrelevant, either company could sue.
>"You can't sue over an increase in the minimum wage," Hufbauer says.
Yet, which is what is worrisome.
>"Both foreign and domestic corporations pay a minimum wage. It’s not discriminatory. Now, if you said foreign corporations have to pay double the minimum wage of local corporations, that would be a different story."
Again dodging the issue Sanders raised.
>The other problem with Sanders's argument, Hufbauer said, is that harming "expected future profits" is not a cause for action. You simply couldn't, as a company, launch a suit just because a labor regulation harmed your future profitability.
Not yet again.
Holy fucking shit fams, keep an eye out for these tyrannical weasels.

So tell me, you lovely conservatards, if Trump says he opposes this so much, why isn't he telling his supporters about the TPP? This thing goes up for vote in 2 months and all he can talk about is his dumbass wall and how much he hates non-whites. but not one serious attempt to tell people about TPP.
He must not be too concerned about it, but really, he only sort of hates it because he hates anything Obama does, not because of genuine dislike. TPP stands to make him wealthier, after all.

I already suspect Trump is responsible for the attacks so he could magically justify his racist rants, AND I suspect he's secretly in favor of TPP. I don't see this as a coincidence that this happened the day before planned massive attention-drawing protests against TPP.

HOT DAMN WE GOT A SITUATION
CISA, the frankenstein version of CISPA, just got implement to a must-pass spending bill for the gov't to stay funded.
This is probably the same bill that a rider that will strip FCC rules from the internet turning off Net Neutrality.
In short, they knew it couldn't pass on it's own, so they wrapped it in shit they need to pass.
Obama and congress are trying to pull this while some internet groups connected to big companies like google, microsoft, apple and amazon are currently not in support of it.
PLAN
1. Find the name of the legislation CISA was snuck into (it's related to the goverment budget.
2. Spread awareness on Social Media (tag jack ANYTHING to do with the internet or tech). Maybe start a hashtag to raise awareness of it. #SneakyCISA?
3. Call your senators now. Not write. Call. Make it blatantly clear you are pissed off and will NOT tolerate this, and will hold [your senator] personally responsible if it passes, and will not rest until the CISA is overturned and s/he is out of office!
All the contact info you need is here:
http://pastebin.com/myPa0K87
Ctrl + F here for ALL senator contact info.
When in doubt, use the congressional switchboard. Get them to shut down out of fear.
4. Find out all the companies who (claimed) they were against this and let them know. If we get them to lean on congress we have a lot more pull. And Share their contact info here.
5. Repost on /tech/ and /pol/ (/pol/ seems defeatist, but it is mostly shilling. Though I wouldn't give them senator contact info, they prefer to play dirty to kindly asking the guy that fucked them to stop) along with other boards who'd be affected (/a/ can't pirate under CISA?)
We frustrate the corporate!
Even if this passes!
Don't give up!!

> Fight for the Future has launched an online action page ObamaDecides.org calling for President Obama to veto CISA in any form. The action tool allows concerned citizens to sign up to be “daily callers,” who will receive a phone prompt to call the White House every day until the administration issues a veto threat.
https://www.obamadecides.org/
It's a petition, but at least it gives you a reminder to keep calling the White House.
Which you should be doing.
You've also got this number: 1-985-222-CISA

The Cabinet will study how it can filter out porn and seditious elements from the Internet after Malaysia signs the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) agreement, minister Datuk Seri Mustapa Mohamed said.
>According to the New Straits Times today, Mustapa said that the Cabinet also decided during its meeting on Wednesday that it may introduce controls to social media.
“We feel that at the moment, there is too much freedom on social media and there is a need to review this with the hope of controlling it.
>“We decided to study the matter and may impose control to prevent undesirable elements on social media,” he was quoted as saying by NST.
>According to local paper Sinar Harian today, Mustapa said that Malaysia’s rights to censor foreign content will not be affected by the TPP.
>“The TPP agreement’s contents do not impose conditions on filtering online content, TPP member countries are even barred from doing so.
>Nevertheless, it doesn’t affect the government’s right to filter foreign content including films and magazines.
>“This is included in the list of exemptions under the Investment Chapter and Cross-Border Trade Chapter. So the import of books, magazines, newspapers, artworks and films that are imported and will be distributed in the domestic market will be subjected to Malaysian laws, including the suitability of broadcast content,” he was quoted saying.
>Parliament is set to debate the TPP in a special parliamentary meeting on January 25 and 26.
>The controversial free trade agreement which was negotiated among 12 countries is expected to be inked this February.

With the bigger channels it's getting 20 - 80k views.
Dunno how relevant it is to us, but being TPP nukes fair use, we could use this tag (pushed by e-celebs and their fans) to spread awareness that TPP fucks over fair use and copyright- And who to call to demand no.
Basically use people who only care about "funny reviews" and parodies to kick up a stink close to SOPA.
Youtube just nuked Team Four Star (the guys who do Dragon Ball Abriged and some other bits). Their account is suspended.

They have tonnes of followers/subscribers, and have been pushing #WTFU. Someone has been the victim of the very thing they started protesting about.
So, a lot of people are going to be talking about Fair Use soon.

Opposing TPP is one of the very very few issues that SJWs and anti-SJWs, that Gamers and anti-Gamers can agree on. I see nothing wrong with linking arms with our opponents on an issue this important and substantive.
There's quite a bit of opposition to TPP in Washington, from both the right and the left. They haven't held a vote yet because they know, as things stand right now, it wouldn't pass.
We all have to do our part to make sure it stays that way.
