Abstract

In order to balance the interests of right holders, network service providers and users, China first stipulated the "notice-takedown" rule in the Regulations on the Protection of the Right of Information Network Dissemination in 2006. Since the Internet industry is in the early stage of development, the copyright environment is relatively clear, and network service providers do not have to bear high obligations, so the allocation of copyright protection obligations in the rules is reasonable at that time. However, with the iterative development of digital technology and the Internet, various short video platforms have also risen rapidly in domestic and foreign markets. Therefore, it is necessary to re-determine the scope of obligations of short video platforms, summarize the key points of controversy between the theoretical and practical circles on the scope of obligations of short video platforms, point out the problems existing in the scope of obligations of short video platforms, and discuss the role of short video platforms in the obligation of active review, notification and review, and post-event protection obligations. Conduct an in-depth analysis of the extent of the obligations to be undertaken, and redefine the scope of obligations of the short video platform on this basis, with a view to balancing the interests of all parties and promoting the sustainable and healthy development of the short video industry.
