Another 20 years on Copyright to protect Mickey Mouse. No exception for crumbling decades old orphan works.
More bans on circumventing DRM because that worked so well last time.
New more severe penalties for piracy of Windows or games. Actual enforcement of anti-piracy measures required in all signatories.
>>312265092
It's basically just more power for corporations to buttfuck economies.
I kind of want to know what TPP but at the same time don't want to because ignorance is bliss

I don't understand what the fuck is going on. I just play video games damn it.

is it really going to pass through congress?

You think people will read that?
People only read the OP. Nobody reads the posts underneath it.
>Both Trump and Sanders hate it
I don't know what to think about it

>wall of text
tl;dr please. What does it do?
>>312265301
Amazing counterargument.
I'm retarded, so can someone explain to me what TPP is/does?
TPP is a hidden message about the TPP. He warned you but you didn't listen.
Its literally going to make it that much more difficult for non-western devs to compete, but video games are the smallest concern of the results of TPP. And yes I am taking your bait on purpose because the rise of globalization oversaturation causing a few large rich countries to dictate their will on nearly all other countries is something I actually care about.
Isn't this just a larger SOPA/PIPA?
>>312265301
You must have no idea what pol is
>>312265470
That shit is hardly 2 pages of a small book.
You shouldn't know it if you can't even read that much.
>passed
Not yet. Although since everybody has agreed to start the process it likely will.
There is also NOTHING any one of us could do to stop it. You need power to stop it and if you have power TPP is likely good for you.
Case closed.
>>312265470
Just read the fucking article dibshit.
>>312265586
you believe the military power gap wasn't enough? corporations had to get involved before you'd buy it?

>>312265512
Trans-Pacific Partnership is a large trade deal between Pacific nations to reduce trade barriers and tariffs, standardizing commercial and corporate regulation and laws across members to ease market, import and export access.
Those for it see the benefits of opening markets to emerging nations in Pacific-Asia, and in turn access to Canadian and American natural resources. Those against it see it as harmful to their country's regulations, allowing a 'secret' trade deal to determine economic and commercial policy.
It's the old free trade vs. protectionism debate again

why and how would this affect gaming?
>>312265625
No. It's not.
It's a trade agreement between the major countries in the Pacific. The whole anti piracy thing is essentially a rider to help get more countries on board.
>>312266008
Europe isn't a member of TPP.
It literally means "Trans-Pacific". Europe isn't on either side of the Pacific.
>>312266016
Then explain ISDS, which is the biggest sticking point (copyright and patent protections notwtihstanding)

Yeah can't blame you, it's more or less the same thing except with the EU really.

Hollywood, Big Corportations, and Lobbyists will have near-total power to police you and send you to prison for whatever reasons they feel like listing. They can force your internet company to give them your IP address and see if you've visited any site that has a hint of torrenting material on them, then come to your house and check your computer to see what's on it. And it makes the punishments far more severe, even more severe than what rapists and murderers and child abusers face.

Just read two paragraphs into this shit by something that isn't written by shills or dumbasses and it's easy to find out it fucks over EVERYBODY.
>>312267229
TPP will:
Make generic medicine illegal because it harms the profits of brand name.
Make copyright infringement much more strict including but not limited to doujins, cosplay, piracy, fan fiction, posting a screenshot, etc
Deregulate food control such as dangerous pesticide usage, over-fishing, etc (because this takes away from profits)
Makes it so that companies can sue for potential profit loss, this could mean literally anything so long as they can argue "well this made me lose money".
Makes it so they do not need to label GMO foods (even foods that have soy or corn spliced in which can trigger allergies). Less information is ALWAYS bad, even though most GMO is harmless.
Modding a game now illegal, circumventing DRM now illegal, piracy now a criminal act, making a youtube video with a picture of an article you're talking about or a segment of a video you're responding to now illegal...
What can you do?
Locate your nearest congress representative, call your local politicians, and tell them you do not support anyone who supports TPP.
Get your family to do the same (or friends if you have any).
This effects Europe, too. TTIP is the same thing as TPP but effecting europe.
Contact your government representatives.
Also for the upcoming elections make sure whoever you vote for is anti-TPP (off the top of my head Sanders or Trump, Paul is pro-TPP as is hillary).

No one is safe, except perhaps Russia.

>>312267756
>>312267729
>>312267638
If you live in a country that passes TPP then it applies to you. The trick is convincing legislatures to pass it. Considering it's been heavily criticized (more like feared) by people across the political spectrum, that's far from guaranteed.

Because it fucks over pretty much everyone and he doesn't give a single shit about corporations as he's already said.
He's big business but he's not one of THE big businesses so this would undoubtedly screw him over too.

Not being able to read the whole thing plus what is available to read is fucking horrible.
This only hints at what the whole thing contains.
At the post-agreement stream on youtube one woman mentioned there being a section about "women's issues".

From a perspective of economic liberalism, this agreement stifles competition.
>>312268003
It absolutely does, but that's been done with every trade agreement. Let's consider a hypothetical trade agreement in which everyone wins and no one loses. Every single person would be happy with the result. The people negotiating that treaty would be dogged by the press constantly, lobbied by special interest groups, and heckled by the ignorant masses. These treaties are negotiated in secret because the people involved want to be able to speak freely and consider ideas without being constantly harassed. Of course, they're also ruthless jews trying to enslave the world, but that's a different matter.
You guys put way too much time into this shit

I like how everyone doesn't give a fuck about him except that one guy on the left laughing his ass off. What a beautiful pic.

Sorry that you don't care about being fucked over, most of us do.

I didn't write this shit.
Actually who came up with copyrights, it's a great idea in theory (Don't steal my shit), but in execution it's been nothing but absolute retardation
>laws put in place years ago in order to prevent monopolies
>fast forward to 2015
>government trying to make it ok to pretty much monopolize things
why is america so shitty
So, if I'm understanding this right, horde all the pirated hentai, animus, cartoons, vidya, and photoshop type shit I can get my hands on, then put them on an external drive which I can chuck out a window when the secret police come to take me to gulag?

Disney has been the biggest group to change copyright for the worst.
Copyright used to last until the author's death (he can no longer suffer profit loss or profit from the copyright so now he no longer needs it) but now it's 70-110 years after his death and can be renewed.
>>312265301
Get out you fucking shill
>>312264334
I've played mostly western games for the last decade, and I'm ready to fall in love with those damn Japs again. MGSV was basically a western game, so I don't count that.
>>312268648
Basically sit in your house and rot.
I'd suggest to take up farming, but you can't do that without reporting all your crops to the IRS
you can't start a business fixing computers without getting 8 different certs, contacting your local government to make sure you can run your business, deal with zoning, and other shit
don't upload to youtube
change your steam avatar to something you created
actually, uninstall your games as well, they probably have copywritten ideas in them, don't want to go to jail for that.
are you cooking a hot pocket? I hope you aren't putting salt or pepper on there, that's probably copywritten
I'll stick to copyleft and other open source community shit
>>312268670
>>312266717
>>312266384
You pirate ANYTHING, you go to jail with a more severe penalty than a rapist or serial killer gets. That includes and in fact counts more for your superior American video games and cartoons, because Hollywood is a huge backer of this shit.
It's hilarious and extremely frightening how many people here are so eager to be fucked in the ass because "hurr people who like Japan make me so angry!".
>>312268648
And contact your congress representatives and local politicians and encourage your family to do the same.
Cherry pick examples of what it'll do to help them understand. Pick based on what they find most important. They most likely won't be willing to read tons and tons of shit on it.
Do they own a small farm or are vegans who are anti-gmo? Link stuff on that.
Do they pirate? Link that.
Do they take any medication? Link stuff on generics being banned.
MAKE THEM CARE.
This hasn't been passed yet, so don't let it.
>>312266321
Does NAFTA have anything to do with oil, because its what it translates to
this is why we need trump
>>312268861
>you can't start a business fixing computers without getting 8 different certs
What. You don't need any certs to fix computers, sure most places will want you to have A+ but you can definitely get a job without it
>>312265446
You know, piracy is a crime here in Brazil and a lot of us HUEs never paid for a single game, be it pc or consoles.Won't this be like prohibition days: enforcement impossible and illegality the way?
A good game is a good game regardless of the country it was developed in

>Government is literally trying to regulate and control every aspect of our lives
>liberals practically enjoy having the red white and blue dick shoved up their assholes, while preaching that republicans, other conservatives, and moderates are the ones with the dicks in their asses
I swear to fucking god I hate everything. This life isn't supposed to be hard BECAUSE of your government.
>>312268968
You don't have to NOW, but you will if this passes.
>>312269050
A lot of conservatives are backing this, too.
>Open up Sad panda

As a Canadian, when will this affect me too?
>>312264563
ripping and downloading "illegal copies" of media is completely legal if you purchased and have in your possession, the media in question
>>312268980
Piracy is a crime everywhere, hue, even in China
>>312268980
At least in the US the company/person who owns the copyright needs to sue in order for you to get in trouble.
However, this makes it so that they do NOT need to do anything, as it's not a criminal offense. This paired with ISPs being under obligation to spy on you and report you if you do anything illegal will make it much easier to enforce (yes that's part of TPP and TTIP too)
>>312269118
at least gun manufacturers wont let any government take away our right to buy their products

How? Nothing about this supports the free market and that's what they're all about.
This is not what a free market looks like! What are they even doing?!
>>312269150
ripping is legal, downloading a rip is not.
What you do with what you ripped is also a grey area, keeping it as a backup is illegal, sharing it with another person is not.
Why don't you guys just buy your video games like I do?
>>312269141
As soon as it passes.
Gets signed in 6 months, then your government just needs to agree.
>>312269150
Not under TPP. Making/downloading copies of things you own is illegal if this passes.
>>312269050
Guess what: Nothing is won forever. You will be fighting for your most basic freedoms and human rights for as long as you live, and so will every subsequent generation. There will always, always be tyrants and jews working tirelessly to fuck you up the ass unless you actively try to stop them.
>>312269279
>keeping it as a backup is illegal
I meant legal
I'm going to bed
>>312269251
>How? Nothing about this supports the free market and that's what they're all about.
Because they don't care about the free market. Did you really think people would be content have competitive business?
>>312269251
Because some are getting paid off, some agree with it, and the rest are idiots.
>>312269305
2 months, 60 days.
My mistake.
>>312269279
Ripping is illegal under TPP. Considered copyright infringement.
Backups are also illegal.
>>312269285
This involves more than games. Read the thread.
>>312269350
This.
Pasta here,Us italians are already with a dick up in the ass,will we get another one?
Will i have to burn my computer?
Will i have do destroy my router?
Will i have to hyde in Iceland?
Some Hebrews are okay none of you guys go to the TPP talks tomorrow.
>>312264334
>Eastern devs end up just making mobile games and pachinko
Yeah golden era alright. Also Japan is in on the TPP.
>>312269459
If Italians can't tell their country in no way touches the pacific already, then I'd say your country is already fucked anyways
>>312264494

That's not how golden ages work.

So what does this do other then making stealing vidya illegal? There has to be more that we are upset about here...

Hey neighborbro, Malta here. Politicians here have been touting TTIP as a godsend that will get us a shitload of billion every year and since 80% of the country is either a Labourite Zealot or a Nationalist Zealot, they're been sucking their dick left right and center. There's almost fuckall resistance to TTIP here.
We're fucked..
>>312269770
This guy thinks he's immune to the influence of powerful corporations
>>312270003
This makes it a criminal offense.
The owners of the copyright do not have to sue you for you to get in trouble.
Instead, the cops show up after your ISP notified them (this becomes mandatory).

Fuck off corporate shill
>>312270089
I am, Wal-mart didn't do shit to me when I shoplifted from them, in fact, they dropped the charges even though it was over $200 of shit.
Corporations can suck my left nut. Get on my level bitch.
>>312269993

Glorious
>>312270128
Can't wait for the cops to arrest literally everybody then, including themselves.
>>312270128
I can't see this being enforced, either every ISP is on board, or one ISP falls back and becomes known as the one that doesn't snitch.
This would totally work if the government just became the national ISP
what a fun day that would be

Well shit,i will go to fap for the last time
I will miss real life
This doesn't affect first world countries, right?
>>312269905
I have a feeling this and the other posts like it is one person spamming because he's just that upset at Japan for whatever reason.
>>312270128
Then I just fuck my PC up as they show up. I have everything backed up already and hidden away (ie: not at my house). They have no proof then, and as I was not aware of their intentions before arriving, I escape prosecution. Sure they can use the ISP logs, but what actual physical proof do they have? At that point it's just baseless conjecture.
>>312270382
They're the main victims

Actually this excuse was used so many times that it's now a law that if your name is on the bill, it's your responsibility
>>312270382
That's basically the only countries it does affect.
Guys if this measure is so bad then why did it pass?
It can't be as bad as you guys are saying
>>312270382
It does.

Seconding this. Holy shit is this terrifying. I've literally only just heard about this now so I assume this must be, right?Right?

Australia is involved too.
>>312266839
that sounds pretty great. Why do people hate it

Yes anon. The corporations and governments care for you so why would they do this right? They love us.
