“TPP was negotiated in secret and details have yet to be published. One chapter appears to give the signatory countries (referred to as ‘parties’) greater power to stop embarrassing information going public. The treaty would give signatories the ability to curtail legal proceedings if the theft of information is ‘detrimental to a party’s economic interests, international relations, or national defense or national security’ – in other words, presumably, if a trial would cause the information to spread. The rules also state that every country has the authority to immediately give the name and address of anyone importing detained goods to whoever owns the intellectual property.”
