The “Intellectual Property Attache Act” (IPAA), would move the IP attache program, which is currently part of the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO), to the Commerce Department. IPAA would also expand the IP attache program by making it a full agency, as well as creating a new position, the Assistant Secretary of Commerce for Intellectual Property.
The IP attaches are U.S. government “diplomats” who push for other countries to adopt similar intellectual property protections as those in the U.S
IPAA and the IP attache program in general as nothing more than the U.S. government forcing the will of Hollywood on the rest of the world. IP attaches are effectively “Hollywood’s global police force.”
