I know it's not your wheel-house but isn't it relevant to point out that groups like Doctors Without Borders issued statements expressing their concerns about the availability of MEDICINE due to the ways TPP interferes with generic pharmaceuticals and the like?

Thanks. I'm surprised that it hasn't become a part of the forefront of these talks... not that people should be pandered to on an emotional level, but people who think they don't care about "internet freedom" and things might respond to these kinds of things.

We see a lot of talk about the TPP regarding the digital implications. Is there a good list of the ways this will affect others beyond the digital realm?

I think it's such a large agreement that the general non-policy-geek population could use a simple guide.
