Tips on rejecting piracy

1. How about a little knowledge about piracy?

How about a little knowledge about piracy 1.315 common sense: how to identify pirated software

315 common sense: how to identify pirated software? To be solved [Tag: common sense, pirated software] Question from a netizen From the World Celebrity Network There are still 14 days and 7 hours until the end of the question. What is piracy? Simply put, piracy includes: individuals or businesses copying genuine software informally or distributing illegal copies to obtain profits.

Various Forms of Piracy Software piracy or "software theft" causes huge losses to the country every year. Fiscal revenue, employment opportunities and industry development are all affected by it.

Many people will suspect that piracy exists around them? Let's clear up some confusion: Copying and Distributing Software Many people don't realize that making a copy of software for a friend is a crime. However, this behavior is considered piracy and will ultimately drive up the price of software available to honest consumers.

Installing a product multiple times Since software is primarily delivered on CD, it is very easy to purchase a CD and then install it a second time for someone else. Especially in the enterprise, people often don't understand that they need to purchase a license for every product they install on every computer.

Since computers are a relatively new experience for most people, there is a lot of confusion surrounding it. For example: Many people believe that letting a friend copy their software is as harmless as lending a friend a novel they purchased.

However, while it's perfectly legal to lend your copy to someone, making a photocopy and giving it away is another matter. A crime is committed when the media is copied --- which is what you do when you make a copy of your software.

When you purchase a software program, you are not actually purchasing the program itself, but the right to install and use the software on just one computer. Once you make another copy, you are breaking the law.

2. Please choose an angle and talk about your understanding or opinions on the issue of "piracy".

Thoughts on the use of pirated software. Recently, China and the United States have also discussed intellectual property issues. There is a turmoil, and it seems that we are still in a disadvantageous position, which has to make us think about it.

It is said that China has had four great inventions and made huge contributions to human civilization. But why didn’t our ancestors think of treating these as intellectual property rights? Otherwise, why would I have to go through so much trouble? It would be a pity to just sit at home and enjoy the benefits by buying intellectual property rights. I won’t talk about the past, but the question is what to do now that people come to your door? Apart from anything else, there are probably not a few people who have used or are currently using pirated software and pirated CDs, right? If there were no pirated software, would China's computers, VCDs, and DVDs be so popular? But don’t panic, we ordinary people are not guilty of piracy, and we can also "use legal weapons to protect our rights and interests."

No, isn’t the Property Law promulgated? Let’s talk about the reasons for using pirated software from a legal perspective. According to our country's laws, at least the following aspects are worthy of discussion.

1. According to Article 106 of the "Property Rights Law": If a person without the right to distribute real estate or movable property transfers it to a transferee, the owner has the right to recover it; unless otherwise provided by law, in compliance with the The transferee acquires the ownership of the real estate or movable property under the following circumstances: (1) The transferee transfers the real estate or movable property in good faith; (2) The transfer is made at a reasonable price; (3) The transferred real estate or movable property is transferred in accordance with the Those that should be registered according to the law have been registered, and those that do not need to be registered have been delivered to the transferee. I wonder if you understand it? When we buy pirated software (even if it is real estate), of course it meets these requirements. Who buys it without good intentions? The price is of course reasonable, a plastic piece costs several yuan.

Pay the money with one hand and deliver the goods with the other hand, of course it is delivered on the spot. Therefore, the ownership we obtain is protected by property law.

2. When we buy a computer, are we obligated to check whether the software that comes pre-installed is genuine? Are the people using the machine obligated to know whether the software is genuine? When we go to an Internet cafe to use a computer, do we still have to worry about whether the software is genuine? How to check and understand? If you want to find it, you have to find the original pre-installer. If you let him go, or if you can't find it and pursue the purchaser and user, who cares about you? 3. my country’s civil law stipulates that the general statute of limitations is two years, that is, within two years from the time when the right holder knows or should know that the right has been infringed, if the right holder does not make a claim, he will no longer be protected by the law. The software we use is more than two years old, right? If you bring it up now, it has already expired, right? 4. There is a protection period for intellectual property rights. Has the software been copyrighted in my country? How many years is the protection period? Is there an announcement to be made? If there is no announcement to the counterparty and you have not announced it to us, who knows what is your intellectual property? 5. Has there been any warning against use so far? If you issue a warning, give a deadline and provide alternatives, then you will win people's support.

Otherwise it will only cause resentment. Without the understanding, support and cooperation of consumers, can the fight against piracy be successful? 6. Piracy of copyright is common in the world and is not unique to our country.

The reason is that the price of genuine software is monopolized and extremely unreasonable. The reason lies in itself, and no one else is to blame. If the price of genuine software drops to five to ten yuan, then no one will use pirated versions anymore. Due to the huge number, software vendors will make tens of billions of money.

It is the most stupid thing for software vendors to fight against consumers. If they insist on fighting with consumers, then this fight will have to go on for a long time at the expense of people and money. It will not be good for everyone, but will only make it easier for pirates. . Should I be held legally responsible for using pirated products? The question of whether one should bear legal liability for using pirated products mainly involves the legal liability of the end user of infringing works.

The "Copyright Law" revised by our country in October 2001 was mainly to meet the needs of China's accession to the WTO. It was revised in accordance with the relevant rules of the WTO and international treaties. It further improved the protection of copyright and gradually In line with the main international trends. According to the provisions of my country's Copyright Law and other regulations, computer software, like books, is protected as a work by the Copyright Law. Computer software is also subject to the provisions of the Computer Software Protection Regulations and other regulations.

According to the provisions of Article 10 of my country's Copyright Law, manufacturers and sellers of pirated software and pirated books mainly infringe upon the reproduction rights and distribution rights of the copyright owner or rights transferee. The infringer shall Article 47 of the Copyright Law stipulates that copyright violators shall bear civil responsibilities such as stopping infringement, eliminating the impact, making an apology, and compensating for losses, and may be subject to administrative penalties and criminal penalties. However, end users who purchase pirated products should be treated differently.

If the manufacturer or seller of pirated products colludes with the end user and commits infringement in a premeditated manner, the purchaser shall bear joint and several civil liability with the manufacturer or seller and jointly compensate the rights holder for the losses. . If it does not fall into the category of conspiracy and conspiracy, then the Copyright Law and other laws will not hold the end user liable for compensation, regardless of whether they are aware or unaware of the infringement of the pirated products they purchased.

Especially for pirated books, pirated audio and video film products, etc., the mere act of purchasing, reading, and playing does not require civil infringement liability. However, for some software used for industrial production and development, such as CAD software for circuit design and some office software, the performance of the software itself determines that its use must be accompanied by copying of all or part of the software. In this way, ultimately The user becomes an illegal copyer of the software and shall bear legal liability in accordance with Article 47 of the Copyright Law.

The above provisions of the law take into account the specific circumstances of piracy and focus on cracking down on manufacturers and sellers. However, if the end user reproduces, rents, or sells the infringing products, he shall bear legal liability in accordance with Article 40 of the Copyright Law.

Although end users can be exempted from some legal responsibilities, piracy is a social nuisance, and buyers and end users have unshirkable social and moral responsibilities. As China joins the WTO, copyright protection will become increasingly complete, and infringers will be punished.

Some countries have legislation to hold end users legally accountable for infringement of intellectual property rights and to protect intellectual property rights.

3. Disadvantages of buying pirated books

Tips: How to avoid buying pirated books

(Repost) I have been a librarian for three years. I was the purchaser of *** for two years. He was very kind to books and despised piracy.

Except for "fast food books" that are purely for entertainment (such as printouts of online novels, popular text messages, platters of disgusting love poems, etc.), most books cannot be read in pirated versions, such as study guidance materials, which may be pirated. You will lose your test scores; pirated operation manuals may cause you to break off your limbs and damage equipment; and pirated books on health care and medicine may cause you to become ill if you fail to maintain good health... and so on.

Pirated books are so bad, how to avoid buying pirated copies? Let’s start with the source—why there is piracy: Books are the crystallization of knowledge and wisdom. Genuine books require payment of author remuneration or royalties, editor and publisher fees, and the risk of adverse distribution and depreciation. Pirated books are simple. It’s just the printing price, and there are no royalties or editing fees. Moreover, pirated books are pirated books that are marketable, so there is no need to worry about distribution risks. It is a business where you can make sure profits without losing money, and "take other people's path and leave others with no way to go".

Someone will definitely do such a good deal, yes, someone will definitely do it.

Classification of piracy: In terms of production methods, piracy can be divided into the following three categories:

The first type is the most honest, copying the full text. The disadvantage is that the handwriting is blurred and can be seen at a glance. The good thing is there are no typos.

The second type of scanning recognition is OCR software scanning and recognition, which is output together with the layout. The advantage is that the handwriting is clear, but the disadvantage is that it is easy to have typos. In addition, for the mixed arrangement of pictures and text in the original book, only the original copies were copied instead of re-entered, so the words in the illustrations are blurred.

The third type, this is the highest level of piracy, the entire entry and rearrangement, it is publisher-level piracy.

In fact, there is another way, which is to organize a group of people to plagiarize a group of books or a certain book, change it into another book, which is also a kind of theft, and it is a big thief, but because it has nothing to do with the edition, it doesn’t matter.

After understanding the origin and production of piracy, you will probably know how to avoid buying pirated copies: 1. If the three-yuan, five-yuan, or one-yuan bookstores on the street sell new books instead of stock books, It's basically pirated. Because that's a paper price, not a book price. Online bookstores can be compared by analogy, but there is a special feature of online stores. Some enterprising store owners will make a profit at a loss and sell genuine copies at pirated prices. When this happens, we must help, haha.

2. Get the book and read a few pages. If the edges of the writing are blurred, it is the first type of piracy, but this type of piracy is now rare. If there are obvious typos, such as: "The symptoms are caused by cold air", the scan will identify it as "The symptoms are caused by cold air"; "Thank you!" will be identified as "Thank you"; "Suitable for all ages" will become "Chengyi" Wait, as long as there is one mistake in recognizing Chinese characters as Chinese characters plus letters, it can be proved to be pirated: because no matter what input method is used in the original book, it is impossible to make such an error. No matter how wrong the Chinese characters are, they are still Chinese characters, no matter how English Wrong is also English, it will not become neither Chinese nor foreign.

3. Pay more attention to book reviews and bibliographies. Buy books early and don’t rush into the crowd. The advantage of being early is that the price of books may be cheaper. Second, pirates usually wait until a certain volume of a book has been sold before they decide to pirate it. , if you buy it late, you have more chances of buying pirated copies.

4. How to combat piracy

1. Regulatory authorities increase law enforcement efforts

2. Improve relevant laws and regulations

3. Start with yourself and don’t buy pirated goods

4. Strengthen social publicity and education and enhance citizens’ awareness of intellectual property rights

5. Request publishing houses or relevant units to publish on genuine books Mark the genuine logo and improve the genuine query system.

6. Have a sense of justice. After knowing and understanding the specific situation of pirates, report it to the relevant administrative departments in a timely manner to safeguard citizens’ rights to intellectual achievements.

7. When publishing books or other items, the system should be improved and relevant measures should be taken to prevent illegal operators from taking advantage of it.

That’s complete enough. I hope it’s helpful to you. Choose me!

5. The more benefits of piracy, the better, (disadvantages of combating piracy) are also possible

1. Our money is limited, and reading pirated books (discs) can increase the number of In terms of knowledge, genuine books (discs) are too expensive. So we need piracy to meet the needs of all kinds of people, to get more books at the cheapest price, and to get more knowledge with the smallest investment.

2. Although the pirated items are fake. But the knowledge inside is true.

3. There are too many poor people in China, and they need cheap books to satisfy their thirst for knowledge.

4. Because printing and piracy are basically poor people, which satisfies some poor people. Conditions for survival

5. It can make the author famous overseas and avoid expensive advertising fees

6. The tools for printing pirated books are very simple and economical, but the contents inside are The knowledge is almost the same

7. Piracy can allow many people to get careers (selling books, printing, etc.)

6. Views on piracy

Piracy refers to Copying or redistributing copyrighted works, publications, etc. without the consent or authorization of the copyright owner.

In most countries and regions, this behavior is defined as an illegal act that infringes on intellectual property rights, and even constitutes a crime, and will be punished by the country where it is located. Pirated publications usually include pirated books, pirated software, pirated audio-visual works and pirated online knowledge products.

Piracy, also known as "D version". The pirated movie discs on the market today can be divided into the following types: 1. Gun version (also called movie version): Movies secretly recorded in theaters, usually with blurry effects , the quality is rough and poor, the tone is dark, and there are shaking, shadows and noise from time to time, but the release speed is very fast, only slightly later than the official release abroad. 2. Disc version: Pirated discs with relatively better effects are usually leaked from foreign or other genuine companies, or made using genuine distribution discs.

The effect is basically the same as that of the original disc, but the dubbing of Western movies is relatively inferior. Usually the male and female voices of the entire movie are dubbed by two people. 3. Album version: It refers to both high-definition movies, usually DVDs, and higher-quality VCDs converted from DVDs.

----------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------- ----- The concept of "software piracy" covers the following behaviors: illegally copying software programs, counterfeiting and selling software products - even sharing a program with friends is included in the list of piracy behaviors. Understanding the various channels of software piracy is crucial not only to strictly comply with intellectual property laws, but also to prevent economic problems such as lower incomes and increased unemployment.

The most common forms of software piracy include: End-user copying Friends swapping disks with installed software products, or organizations deliberately underreporting the number of software installations that have been performed. Counterfeiting The large-scale reproduction and sale of illegal software copies.

Does the idea that sharing software resources with friends* seem inconspicuous and has nothing to do with large-scale counterfeiting? The answer is that this notion is incorrect. Both forms of software piracy violate copyright protection laws and can put software users, including you, at significant risk.

End-user copying Pure software copying activities carried out by enterprises and individuals without permission are one of the most common forms of software piracy. In addition, end-user copying behaviors also include: Installing software products on the company's computers in excess of the number of purchased licenses Informal disk swapping behaviors among friends and partners. These behaviors are illegal because the user has not obtained a license to use the software, and May expose users to risks.

Counterfeiting Counterfeiting refers to the large-scale illegal copying and sale of software products. Many piracy gangs are involved in organized crime - most of them use cutting-edge technology to copy and package software products.

The packaged pirated software will be sold in a form similar to legal software. In the case of mass production, software piracy has evolved into an out-and-out criminal activity.

Software piracy has become a bridge for money laundering schemes, which in turn finances and fuels criminal activities such as weapons smuggling, gambling, loan sharking and prostitution. As the technology used by counterfeiters improves day by day, even many sophisticated consumers are unable to effectively differentiate between legitimate software and counterfeit products.

The boom in Internet shopping has also increased the possibility of this kind of fraud. The main reason is that you cannot order the product before it is delivered to your door - if it can be delivered at all - Identify them with your own eyes. The dangers of piracy: Infringement of other people's copyrights, the quality of the disc is far worse than the original, the content in the disc is usually incomplete (for example, a game usually deletes some animations and sounds), there is no complete product service, and the hard disk is easily damaged, usually with Virus.

Wait. Don't be fooled. Counterfeiters often use extremely low offers to attract consumers to buy pirated software. However, what is not mentioned in the rhetoric they use to sell is the huge risk that is about to be passed on to consumers at large.

If the software offer is too good to be true, then this trap is likely to exist. What consumers who buy counterfeit software products get is: software that has not been tested but has been copied thousands of times, is likely to contain hardware-infecting viruses, does not have technical support, does not have quality assurance, and is not legal. Product usage rights are not taxed because of piracy, so their interests will leave the country without financial resources.

7. What is piracy and what is piracy and genuine?

April 26 is Intellectual Property Day. The so-called intellectual property refers to: citizens, legal persons or other public entities** *The exclusive rights that an organization enjoys in accordance with the law over its intellectual achievements that are mainly based on mental work in the fields of science, technology, literature and art.

Intellectual achievements created through mental work are everywhere around us, and our lives are inseparable from them, but at the same time, there is a market for piracy. Any act of copying or distributing the software without the permission of the software copyright owner, or otherwise disseminating, selling and using the software beyond the scope of the license, is software piracy.

Piracy is also an act that infringes upon the property rights of software copyright owners protected by relevant intellectual property laws. Compared with genuine products, pirated products are much cheaper, but their quality is also much worse, which will cause a lot of harm to us.

I think everyone understands this truth. Therefore, if you want to reject piracy, you must start with small things, start with yourself, and start by refusing to buy a cheap pirated CD that you like.

Around us, infringement of intellectual property rights includes not only using and distributing pirated products, but also selling and purchasing harmful publications.

It can be said that harmful publications are far more harmful to young people than pirated products. The physical and mental development of us teenagers is not yet mature, and our ability to resist external aggression is still very weak, and some reading materials that promote violence, superstition and other bad information are harmful to us immeasurably.

Nowadays, the work of "anti-pornography and illegal activities" is underway everywhere. As victims, we should be aware of the harm of harmful publications, reject harmful publications, and protect our own physical and mental health. "Start with me, stay away from piracy, reject harmful publications, and protect intellectual property rights" is our responsibility to ourselves! .
