Liability for Copyright Infringement —— From the case of college students v. Capital Online and Xiang Li (case analysis)
This case happened in 1998, so only the copyright law can be applied. If it happens today, then the copyright law and the information network communication regulations should be applied. According to the notification deletion obligation of ISP (Internet Service Provider), Capital Online can delete infringing content within a reasonable time, and can be exempted from liability.

Xiang Li infringed the plaintiff's copyright. Its defense said, "The book" The Classic of Winning the Postgraduate Entrance Examination "published by the plaintiff is inconsistent with the relevant approval documents of the publishing authority, and it failed to provide all the evidence that the original author allowed him to use the work. Therefore, the plaintiff does not enjoy the copyright of the book. " This sentence itself is full of mistakes. What is the relationship between copyright and the approval of the competent authorities? The production of copyright is a factual act. Even a compilation without the consent of the original author is still a new work as long as it is original (but the exercise of copyright must be approved by the original copyright owner, otherwise it will be infringement).

Judgment content: Victory in Postgraduate Entrance Examination contains the editorial ideas of College Students magazine and enjoys copyright. However, Xiang Li's behavior of publishing relevant content on his personal website without permission has constituted infringement, so it is judged that he shall not publish the same content as "Selection and Arrangement of Success in Postgraduate Entrance Examination" on his personal website without permission; An apology statement should be issued on the home page of "Capital Online 263" personal homepage channel, and at the same time, the economic loss of "College Students" magazine should be compensated for 5,000 yuan; Jing Xun Company took corresponding measures after receiving the lawyer's letter, so it is not responsible.
