I think you are right that the article is light on evidence for why the TPP is bad for consumers and could have used some links to sources to expand upon it more. But the article seems mainly geared to letting people who already care passionately about the issue know that Google is not on their side. It doesn't matter if Google says they care about fair use or the expansion of copyright while throwing their support behind an agreement that does not. Even if this is to be expected, it's worth making a fuss about it because that's really the only weapon the public has at this point. Of course corporations care about their interests without taking only account negative externalities, but naming and shaming is a way consumers have to make them care about those externalities.
