NAFTA Needs Strong Copyright Provisions, CreativeFuture Says
Strong copyright protections should be included in the North American Free Trade Agreement, CreativeFuture said in a petition with "over 50,000 signatures." Creative communities can't afford the job losses that would result if NAFTA ends up with "weak provisions" on intellectual property, it said. The group worries that "the agenda of behemoth Silicon Valley companies" will erode copyright protections and undermine U.S. exports.
