网络服务提供者的著作权保护责任

Liability for Copyright Protection of Internet Service Providers

随着互联网产业的进一步发展,P2P技术的广泛应用,网络环境下的著作权侵权案件日益增多。从七大唱片公司诉百度案,到韩寒、王蒙等百位作家联名状告百度文库侵权案、快播案,可以看出网络环境下对于著作权的侵犯往往比以传统方式对著作权的侵犯所带给著作权人的损失更加严重,网络服务提供者在著作权保护中处于更加核心的地位。因此,规制网络服务提供者的行为、增强网络服务提供者的著作权保护责任对于规范网络秩序,净化网络环境,保护著作权人著作权有着十分积极的意义。

With the further development of the Internet industry and wide application of P2P technology, the copyright infringement cases under the network environment are increasing. There are cases from seven big record labels prosecuting Baidu, to more than 100 writers such as Hanhan, Wangmeng prosecuting Baidu Li- brary for infringement, and finally QVDQ was punished. It can be seen that copyright infringement under the network eiavironment often brings more serious loss for the copyright owner than copyright infringement in traditional way. The internet service providers play a core role in the copyright protection. Therefore, regulating the behavior and enhancing the responsibility of the internet service providers have a very positive meaning to standardize the order of network copyright protection, purify network environment and protect the copyright of the copyright owner.
