Recently, there is a piece of news about making cheating software, which is a kind of infringing the network copyright of the owner.
it is a common phenomenon of such infringement nowadays, and it is due to the lack of related laws and regulations. The cost of safeguarding the network copyright can sometimes be very high due to the internet involved.
Fortunately, the owner of the game software in this piece of news got his compensation and succeeded in preventing other from making cheating software, however, it is not so fortunate for other owner. In my hometown, due to the lack of legal awareness and rapid development of the internet, there are a lot of cases about infringement of copyright online.
From my point of view, in order to protect the author’s copyright online, first, it is important for the government to establish related system to regulate such infringement, and also make such system up-to-date is of equal significance because of the rapid development of the internet. Second, people shall raise awareness of such illegal act and be brave to safeguard their rights online. This needs some lectures or NGO to promote such information.
There is a long way to go to protect the network copyright. Only making joint effects can we create a harmonious online environment for the content producer and users.
