There is a lot of hypothetical support here for a mechanism to defeat copyright theft. However the secret parts of this treaty could contain outright bans on certain types of free expression.
Its also hard to see how we could rely on ISPs to properly ID a paid download vs a sharing download. They could easily throw out the baby with the bathwater.
Not to mention the probability of a segregated internet, where we would need ISP approval to distribute content, & ISPs deciding not to transmit legal material, just to be on the safe side.
