    "Conversely, Jordan has always had much more narrowly-crafted limitations
    to copyright. In fact, in 2000 Jordan signed a Free Trade Agreement (FTA)
    with the US requiring it to increase its IP protection to still more
    stringent
    levels than required by the Agreement on Trade Related Aspects of
    Intellectual Property Rights, or TRIPS, of the World Trade Organisation
    (WTO).

Referring to copyright using the confused rubric of "IP"
tends to encourage harsh and bad laws like these.
