REVEALED:
“Chief negotiators” are now stepping in to finalize a Trans-Pacific
Partnership (TPP) plan that could censor expression online for
generations.1 2 Your
comments on mobile platforms, content on YouTube, and posts on Facebook
could be censored. Whole websites could even be blocked.3
We only have 48hrs before meetings in Ottawa conclude: Let’s raise a loud global call for TPP chief negotiators to back off and save free expression now. TPP negotiators received citizen comments in a face-to-face meeting with OpenMedia just hours ago,4 but now chief negotiators are stepping in to ram the censorship plan into place. If
enough people speak out now, we’ll put up a giant “Save Free
Expression” banner in front of the TPP meeting building – a banner that
decision makers and the media can’t ignore.
