As another of round of secret Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) meetings began in Salt Lake City this week, EFF joined Knowledge Ecology International, Public Citizen, Techdirt, and Open Media, in a Reddit AMA (“Ask Me Anything”) to answer users‘ questions about the leaked TPP “Intellectual Property” chapter.

We answered questions, because representatives of the governments negotiating the text certainly weren‘t going to. Internet users expect to be able to engage and participate in deciding our policy priorities. We do not want regulations to be decided through back room deals with corporate interests—and the growing opposition against TPP reflects this. When a user asked how we plan on stopping this agreement, Peter Maybarduk of Public Citizen said it best: “Our plan to stop the TPP is simple: tell people what‘s in it.”
