"The TPP requires the 12 participating countries to allow cross-border transfers of information and prohibits them from requiring local storage of data"

Yup, definitely the wrong side of this. I can't see how this will get passed in the EU when it directly contradicts all the previous data protection rulings, but presumably there will be some undemocratic process.




TTP = Trans-Pacific Partnership

TTIP = Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership

The TPP is the Trans-Pacific Partnership which doesn't include the EU (only countries on the Pacific).


TTP, TTIP, BITS, and TiSA are a set of conjoined multilateral aggreements. Yes, individually seperate and with distinct members, but broadly similar.


> "The TPP ... limits governments’ ability to demand access to encryption keys or other cryptographic methods"

This seems good though.
