TPP Trade Deal Would Curb Freedom of Speech Online, Internet Activists Warn | 17 April 2015 | Internet freedom advocates are concerned that a vast new trade partnership supported by the Obama administration and placed on the path to fast-track approval by Congress Thursday will permit multinational corporations to crack down on freedom of speech and the right to privacy online. The complaints are aimed at a crucial part of the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP), a pact that could help shape President Obama's legacy on economic issues. While the terms of the proposed deal have been made public only through a series of leaks, the U.S. has been pushing for an agreement with 11 other countries that make up 40 percent of U.S. imports and exports. Leaked versions of the pact make it clear the U.S. is trying to sway other countries to implement American intellectual property law already used by copyright holders to remove legally questionable content from the Internet in the U.S.
