signs very very strong opposition leading up to today's vote that it will be rejected by the european parliament the arguments opposing of the fact that this possible passage of this could possibly infringe on a lot of individual freedoms especially when it comes to internet freedom so out of the four possible outcomes in parliament what happened today is that they had rejected this counterfeiting trade agreement and what it essentially means is that europe as a whole would be out of this agreement and this has been signed by several other countries including the u.s. australia and if this is to be ratified by six of those parties europe will not be a part of it europe is considered as one entity the main concern really here is the loss of freedom and just more monitoring from authorities in favor of those people lobbying commercially for the intellectual property rights of their climbing especially for example the entertainment industry is not for individual for people who are using the internet what they want here is simply freedom to do what they what they see as a very democratic platform an

you were watching the cable networks because they never touch this stuff is a yesterday the european parliament dealt a huge blow to act that's the end of counterfeiting trade agreement and we've spoken about it many times before on this show it's been years in the making all the negotiations have been very secretive and while the public and congress were excluded the entertainment industry and big pharmaceutical companies well they were shown the door and let write in now it's actually pretty similar to the secrecy and the approach of drafting the t p p which is the trans-pacific partnership agreement we're going to sketch that later on in the show but the thing is with active see at lums attempts to take on counterfeiting and copyright infringement all into one agreement then it aims to create a so-called global standard global standard for these issues. which in reality is really about a few countries making everybody else adapt to the way that they like to do things and it's had its opponents for years especially from those who pushed for more transparency and a lot of people in the tech co
