@dirtdon @viticci So “We made a change we didn’t test & turned out we screwed you so we changed it back (or both). Hah! We should worry!”
@snlestern Interesting! Neither AU nor NZ was warm to the idea and perhaps the 1980’s TV quota case showed ISDS is unnecessary. Still…

#TPP encourages registration of smells as trademarks. Consumer information in the smell of fresh bread, mown lawns, the aroma of VW exhaust?
On first reading, no surprises in IP chapter: elaborate, intrusive, overlong restrictions on enterprise for the sake of narrow private gain.
#TPP preserves the xenophobic, superfluous irritations of AU foreign investment “review” (Services & Investment annexes as N-C measures).
The negative-list AU services schedule in the AU-CHN FTA was apparently lifted from the #TPP schedule (surprise!). Looks very similar.
Hoorah! AU Tariff goes to zero (afaics) under #TPP… Still, Art. 6.8.1 preserves the foul inventions of Anti-dumping permitted by #WTO
