2023-04-23
In recent years, with the continuous development of digital education, educational resources have broken through the boundaries of time and space, and the circulation and sharing between different regions and populations have become more convenient. With the continuous development of digital education, it has also triggered new contradictions and disputes, which have constrained the healthy and orderly development of digital education. On April 18th, the Beijing Internet Court held a press conference and released a white paper on the trial of digital education copyright cases, as well as the court's exploration of strengthening judicial governance in digital education. It is reported that in the past four years, the Beijing Internet Court has accepted over 2700 digital education copyright disputes. The main body of rights protection is relatively concentrated, and the main body of litigation is concentrated in major publishing houses, educational and training institutions, and teacher groups. Litigation cases have a phenomenon of typification and mass production. The defendant uses educational products through various means such as sales, gifts, dubbing, and online classroom use, or relies on online channels to collaborate with other parties and anonymously provide and share the plaintiff's teaching materials, videos, recordings, lectures, courseware, answers, etc. The forms of infringement present diversity and concealment. At the same time, new infringements caused by new technologies and new applications, such as point reading pen, AI early education robot, audiobook, are constantly emerging. With the development of artificial intelligence and other technologies, it can be predicted that the number of disputes of this type will further increase. In the face of many problems and challenges in copyright protection in the field of digital education, we adhere to using judgments to establish rules, promoting governance, and promoting development through governance. "Zhao Ruigang, a member of the Party Group and Vice President of the Beijing Internet Court, said that the court will continue to strengthen the establishment of judgment rules in the identification of educational product types, ownership of rights, infringement identification, and compensation liability, in order to properly resolve disputes Standardize the development of the digital education industry and provide guidance. At the same time, he suggested strengthening the collaborative protection of intellectual property with administrative agencies and industry associations, and promoting the formation of a fair and orderly market order. We also respect platform governance, advocate for platform self-discipline, and strengthen protection and prevent infringement through systems and technologies
