Worse than TTIP

                                                                                                                                                                       Dear friends in Germany,



TTIP was just the beginning -- now TISA, a new secret deal, threatens to privatise our drinking water and hand our bank details to the US!  But a huge outcry ahead of the next round of negotiations in February can shed light on these dealings and stop TISA. Sign now and share widely!

SIGN THE PETITION
TTIP was just the beginning - now a new secret deal called TISA threatens to privatise our drinking water and hand our personal bank details to the US. But together we can still stop the shady negotiations!

Negotiated behind closed doors
, TISA - the Trade in Services Agreement - has far-reaching consequences. Insiders say it will push the privatisation of our water and electricity, and put data protection at risk. But massive citizen's protests already put a spanner in the works for TTIP, a similar trade agreement, and negotiators are doing all they can to prevent the same public outrage around TISA. But with a huge petition ahead of the next negotiation round in February, we can turn things upside down.

TISA negotiations are a well-kept secret
, many people have never heard of them, and the content of discussions is not revealed. Let's change this now! Sign the petition to stop the negotiations and spread the word to shed light on the talks!

Shhh… top secret. For nearly two years, negotiators have been plotting to keep TISA and the shady process out of the public eye. Information about the talks only reached the public through whistleblowers! But TTIP also remained off the public radar until a massive wave of protests blocked many of the worst parts from going through. If we create a similar stink around TISA, we can stop the negotiations and call for the EU mandate to be made public.

International trade deals can benefit people in the countries that take part in them -- for example by spreading cheaper renewable technologies across the world. But if secret negotiations threaten to hand over vital services like our water supply to Big Business, undermine European data protection rules and put our net neutrality at risk, it's time to step in!

The next negotiation round takes place in Geneva on the 9th of February
-- let's reach 300.000 signers before the big delivery! Sign now and share widely:

Together, we helped stop global agreements like ACTA - an international treaty that would have allowed businesses to censor the internet. Let's build a massive call now to ensure that decisions that affect us all aren't made behind our backs.

With hope and determination,

Christoph, Antonia, Luis, Anne, Ricken and the whole Avaaz team
