Crazy Europeans! Damn Yankees!
Wacko Politicians!

This blog has some predominant themes:

• Europe does not understand the Internet
• US Corporations do not understand Europe
• Perceptions of ISDS ¹ are heavily influenced by a mythology.

The first post falls under the third theme – it relates to the recent publication of a decision in the arbitration case involving Philip Morris and Australia.

The second post is off on a tangent — high level corruption in the US and Malaysia to help the TPP along.

And then another tangent — sorry. The Australian Democrats political party gets a serve for letting the intern run the Twitter feed.
