Subject: BREAKING: TPP text leaked
To: danarauz(a)gmail.com
*Last week, WikiLeaks released the final text of the TPP’s intellectual
property rights chapter and it is absolutely terrifying.*
*These are just a few of its most dangerous pieces:*
-
Compel ISPs to take down websites without any sort of court order, just
like SOPA. (Appendix Section I)
-
Extend the US’s copyright regime to require copyrights stand for life
plus 70 years, preventing anyone from using works that belong in the public
domain. (Article QQ.G.6)
-
Criminalize whistleblowing by extending trade secrets laws without any
mandatory exemptions for whistleblowers or investigative journalists.
(QQ.H.8)
-
End anonymity online by forcing every domain name to be associated with
a real name and address. (Article QQ.C.12)
-
Make it illegal to unlock, modify, or generally tinker with a device you
own. (Article QQ.G.10)
-
Export the US’s broken copyright policies to the rest of the world
without expanding any of the free speech protections, like fair use.
(Article QQ.G.17)
*The worst part is that this is just one of the TPP’s 30 chapters. *
*The final text confirms our worst fears — click here to take action
demanding Congress vote NO on the TPP.
<http://list.fightforthefuture.org/mpss/c/2wA/ZgwNAA/t.1ra/JRRvvf--QMGuoqxOh…>*
For years, governments have held critics of the massive Trans-Pacific
Partnership agreement in a perfect catch 22. Officials brushed off public
outcry and concern by claiming that the dissenters didn’t have all the
facts.
This was by design—the 12 country trade deal was negotiated entirely behind
closed doors by industry lobbyists and government appointees, and even now
the text of the agreement is still classified.
But late last week, WikiLeaks released the final text of the Intellectual
Property chapter, meaning those excuses won’t work anymore.
*We’re planning to go all out against the TPP, but the first step is to
make sure Congress knows just how many people oppose the TPP. *
*Click here to take action demanding Congress vote NO on the TPP.
<http://list.fightforthefuture.org/mpss/c/2wA/ZgwNAA/t.1ra/JRRvvf--QMGuoqxOh…>*
Taking action today is just the beginning, because if all we do is send
emails and make phone calls, Congress is not going to reject the TPP. Too
many giant industries are seriously invested in making sure Congress
ratifies the TPP.
*If we’re going to win, we need to go big. Which is exactly what we’re
going to do.*
*So take action right now. Contact your Congresspeople now and tell them to
vote against the TPP
<http://list.fightforthefuture.org/mpss/c/2wA/ZgwNAA/t.1ra/JRRvvf--QMGuoqxOh…>*.
Then get ready to do more because we’re going to unleash some of our
strongest campaigns ever.
Already we have plans to work with hundreds of different groups as a
massive coalition to fight the TPP, coordinate gigantic on-the-ground
protests in key cities across the country, and produce compelling content
to spread the word to as many different audiences as possible just what is
at stake in the TPP.
*To do all that, we need your help — if you can, pledge to chip in $5 every
month between now and when the TPP fight ends so that we can run our
biggest, boldest, and best campaign yet.
<http://list.fightforthefuture.org/mpss/c/2wA/ZgwNAA/t.1ra/JRRvvf--QMGuoqxOh…>*
Thanks for all you do,
Charlie
P.S. Want to read the text of the chapter for yourself? Check it out on
WikiLeaks here

or read their overview of it here

It’s long and complicated, so maybe you'll see something that we didn't. If
you do, send us an email.

Hello Sudoers, I am samthetechie from c-base, Berlin.
I am on Mitch's
https://noisebridge.net/wiki/NoisebridgeChinaTrip5#People_interested_in_goi…
trip (which is amazing). Currently in Shanghai spending a lot of time at
this cool hackerspace: https://wiki.hackerspaces.org/Xinchejian
I came across https://www.climategames.net/en/ which some folk at the
space might quite like and the trailer (https://youtu.be/PLuSZSI0vz8) is
awesome and the concept looks thrilling!
So does anyone want to collaborate on ideas for how hackerspaces in
general can participate in the climate games and maybe who wants to make
a team and get disbodient? Omni/Sudoroom Team? A Noisebridge team?
C-base team? etc
Not sure about the best way to move forwards, open to suggestions? Maybe
a call or IRC meeting would be best? freenode/#climategames
I posted this on the mailing list as I see this more as a project rather
than a simple: here is a link/thing :)
Cheers,
samthetechie

Anybody feel familiar enough with the wiley ways the Indian government
likes to snoop around? I work for a nonprofit that helps local folks fight
destructive dam projects, and though I'm working with an infosec consultant
to create a general policy and guidelines, our Indian office is looking for
someone with experience in the region to help them specifically. If so,
lemme know
Hey all,
Anyone have a magnetic stripe card writer (encoder)?
What about magnetic stripe cards? Especially the type used for gift cards
and debit/credit cards!
Need for omni access!!!
// Matt
Are there any innovators on this list and/or associated with Omni who
are into wearable tech? I'd love to talk with you, especially if you
have an interest in "high tech fashion." This seems unlikely to me, but
I never know...someone might be out there.

i was just meditating on that symbol, wondering about the eights. it might
even have been on the evening of the sixth, or seventh. thank you
jeremiah. well said.
hope you found yours.
hope i find mine.
*to jeremiah, who died just before we met, i think*
a friend of a friend
upon whom did depend
all manner of things now set free
a few days ago through
some people i know
wrote some words that managed to reach me
after he died, after he died
between that moment and this one he died
everything strange no doubt rearranged
but how could it be, to me
how is it this way for me?
that each separate word nevermore to be heard
as should be, said by him, properly
now only in silence
in the mind of a stranger
speaks
as soon enough mine will,
for me.
