影视剧“切条”搬运侵权！ 个人和平台该承担什么责任？

Core Viewpoint - The unauthorized use of copyrighted materials, such as film and television clips in short videos, constitutes copyright infringement, as demonstrated by a recent court case in Shanghai where an individual was ordered to pay damages for uploading clips without permission [1][2]. Legal Implications - The Shanghai court ruled that the defendant's actions violated the information network dissemination rights of the copyright holders, leading to a compensation order of 20,000 yuan [1]. - Courts consider factors like the influence of the original work, the number of infringing videos, and the duration of infringement when determining compensation, which can range from tens of thousands to millions of yuan [2]. Industry Impact - The rise of short video formats has led to a significant number of copyright infringement cases, affecting the revenue and viewership of original content [2][8]. - The unauthorized distribution of short clips can divert audience attention from full-length series, potentially harming the original creators' commercial opportunities and diminishing the incentive to produce new content [10][12]. Responsibilities of Platforms - Online platforms may bear joint liability for copyright infringement if they are aware of the infringing content and fail to act, especially if they have received prior notifications from rights holders [6][7]. - Platforms that edit or promote infringing content may also be held accountable, as their actions could indicate knowledge of the infringement [7]. Cultural Consequences - The prevalence of unauthorized short videos can undermine the creative industry by reducing the motivation for creators to produce high-quality content, leading to a potential decline in cultural output [12].
