The Amendment Of Copyright Law Faces The Challenge Of "Cloud Age"

In the Internet era, people's love for and dependence on the Internet is increasing day by day.

And accompanied by

A few days ago, the China Copyright annual meeting was held in Beijing in 2011.

Tong Zhilei, chairman of Chinese online, said that the great development of digital publishing put forward new proposals for copyright protection.

As for how to strengthen copyright protection, Tong Zhi Lei emphasized the idea of "first authorized and then spread", that is, before being pmitted, it should be legally authorized.

Cloud computing is an Internet based computing mode. In this way, shared hardware and software resources and information can be provided to computers and other devices on demand.

Cloud is actually a metaphor of the Internet and the Internet.

The emergence of cloud computing has made the urgency of copyright protection more prominent.

Wang Qian, a professor at East China University of political science and law, said that although the copyright protection dispute brought about by cloud computing has not yet appeared, it does not mean that there is no need for research.

Wang Qian believes that in the era of cloud computing, technical protection measures are very important. A technical protection measure should be set up. For example, users want to call content from the cloud for online appreciation or read, and he should enter his username and password, and this username and password need to be paid for.

In addition, he said that legislation needs to be further strengthened in this respect, that is, it does not allow others to crack the contents of cloud protection at will, nor does it allow the provision of crack tools or measures.

"Changes in technology will bring about changes in the rules of law, but in any case, the pursuit of fairness and justice should be the eternal pursuit of legal people."

Wang Qian said

How to establish a smooth channel of authorization, establish a balance of interests between copyright owners, users and communicators, and curb copyright infringement is the biggest challenge facing copyright protection in the digital environment.

In recent years, people in the industry are seriously thinking and trying to find a way out.

And the voice of further improving the copyright legal system is endless.

In February 24, 2011, at the Symposium on the revision of the copyright law of the People's Republic of China jointly held by the Copyright Society of China and the Law School of Renmin University of China and the Intellectual Property Institute, the representatives of relevant industry associations, representatives of rights holders and experts and scholars of law circles jointly signed the "appeal for a comprehensive revision of the People's Republic of China copyright law" as soon as possible. The participants called for the revision of the copyright law as soon as possible, and fundamentally strengthened the protection of the content industry, and promoted the development and prosperity of China's cultural undertakings and high-tech industries.

Zhang Kangkang, vice chairman of the CPPCC National Committee and vice chairman of the Chinese Writers Association, suggested that the copyright law should be amended as soon as possible.

She believes that the existing copyright law has obviously lagged behind, some of which have not adapted to the rapidly developing economic and cultural status.

At last, a joyful news came.

In July 2011, the General Administration of press and publication and the State Copyright Bureau held the third revision and launching of the copyright law and the expert appointment ceremony in Beijing, announcing the formal revision of the copyright law.

Liu Binjie, director of the General Administration of press and publication and director of the national copyright administration, said at the start ceremony that with the rapid development and extensive use of high and new technology, especially digital technology and network technology, the legal system of copyright has encountered severe challenges.

Compared with the patent law and the trademark law, the social relations adjusted by the copyright law are more complex, more prominent contradictions and more problems. It is a law that is most affected by technological progress and social development, while the revision work is relatively lagging behind.

Therefore, under the present circumstances, it is of great practical significance to further speed up the third revision of the copyright law.

In the forum of "cloud computing, digital publishing and copyright protection", Wang Ziqiang, director general of the press and publication administration, said that the new technology has revolutionized the way of creation, dissemination and use of works, but the development of technology has not overturned the basic principles of copyright protection, that is, the right to create, and the right to use others must be approved.

He said that copyright law amendment should adhere to three principles: one is the principle of independence, that is, to solve problems from the reality of China; the two is the principle of balance of interests, taking into account the interests of the rights holders, users and consumers, to ensure the need for information dissemination, technological development and respect for the rights holders; three, the international principle, and copyright protection is globalized, so that China's copyright law is in conformity with the provisions of relevant international treaties.

In addition, he said that the revision work will aim at high efficiency, high quality and high level.
