I dunno but something smells fishy about this

3758254 I've heard of this outside of just fimfiction and such. From everything I've seen, this is a real thing.

[Lord Despair]

3758262 maybe................I haven't heard about it until now

[Michael Hudson]

3758269 It's only become public recently.

[Lord Despair]

3758279 hmm less then 5,000 to go on petition

[rainbowdarth]

I signed it.

[Crystal Cuddles]

Pretty sure this counts as unconstitutional, put it before the supreme court they will say no

[The Derpy Division]

I got this on both my fanfiction accounts people saying about this and they are freaking out on Fanfiction and me being one of top writers on there they all flock to me asking for help on it.

what exactly has the TPP to do with fimfiction and why is it bad?
(i live in europe and haven't heard anything about it and the things i did find on it don't realy seam negative or maybe i just don't understand what it would mean if it is enacted)

[Michael Hudson]

3758388 From what i can tell, it calls for mass deregulation of industry. Pretty much everything that keeps companies from doing what they want to do, goes away. This would also most likely mean a lot more copyright power. I mean, fair use allows us to do this, despite copyright owners possibly not wanting us to. So put ALL OF US in the situation that Jan Animations got put into.

The TPP means that the policies of international corporations can supersede the policies and regulations of a country they work in.

[mastermenthe]

3758335
The Constitution states that international trade agreements trump the Constitution.

[Brony kaiju soldier]

So... what does this do again?

[Trithtale]

3758412 You lucky Europeans.

[HeadPaige]

So what exactly would this TTP do if it's passed?

[LtMajorDude]

Yo, this guy basically told you to shut up.

3760164 I know, we talked. He's more just tired of people jumping at the cycle of bills like SOPA. He also admitted that he made the blog in about three minutes, and would have normally left names off.

This is still a thing, not just something he debunked or anything like that.

[Vinyl_Scratch-14]

[Michael Hudson]
