TPPA legitimises 'spying' of Internet users, claims researcher

The Trans-Pacific Partnership Agreement (TPPA) contains provisions that would legitimise 'spying' by Internet service providers (ISPs) on their customers, warned a researcher today.

Jay Jay Denis said the provisions are meant to deter copyright infringements on the Internet, but end up giving too much power to ISPs.

Among others, ISPs would be given 'legal incentives' to cooperate with copyright owners to deter copyright infringement.
