Errrr…no.
The lack of transparency is the heart of the concerns about the ACTA negotiations.
That the MPAA

“Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain”
What charges of conspiracy… We know what the corps and lobbyists are and have always been pushing for. We know what the U.S. has been pushing for (same thing)… Now that the public is shut out, is it an accusation of conspiracy to assume they are still pushing for the same things they always have been in the open and that it will be easier to do in secrecy? It’s just common sense.
