How to make a public inquiry about software copyright registration?

We know that sometimes some personal things need to be registered, but intellectual property is different from other physical properties. With the development of society, software is more concerned. So, how to make a public inquiry about software copyright registration? Do you know the relevant process? Let's take a look. How to make a public inquiry about software copyright registration? There are two ways to inquire about software copyright: one is to inquire about China Copyright Protection Center and get the inquiry result at the cost price; Second, log on to the website of China Copyright Protection Center. 1. Log on to the homepage of the website of China Copyright Protection Center. 2. On the right side under the column of copyright registration hall, enter the notice of copyright registration of computer software. 3. Enter any one of the software name, registration number and copyright owner on the announcement page to query the registered and certified software. The Copyright Bureau does not recognize originality when registering copyright, or perhaps more accurately, it does not substantially examine originality because: 1. The acquisition of copyright does not need any formalities, and the main function of copyright registration is publicity, and it is used as preliminary evidence of the ownership of rights when disputes arise and are brought to court. Evidence to the contrary can overturn the registration. If (only if) China's laws stipulate that the copyright is obtained after the creation of the work is completed and registered. Need to conduct a substantive review at the time of registration. 2. The so-called "originality" does not require being different. Even if they are similar in substance, it cannot be ruled out that they independently created the same works at the same time. Therefore, the original judgment of copyright is generally based on "connection" and "substantial similarity". This judgment method can only be compared in pairs. Even if the copyright office can find that the two softwares are similar in essence through examination, it is absolutely impossible to identify "contact" through examination of codes. To sum up the above two points: it is neither necessary nor possible to conduct original review in copyright registration. Comparing with the patent system may be helpful to understand that if two people independently develop substantially similar software, they both enjoy the copyright of their own works. In the patent system, even if two people independently develop substantially similar technologies, only the person who applies first can obtain the patent right. The deeper reason is that copyright protects expression and does not extend to ideas, while patents protect ideas. The difference between the patent system and the copyright system leads to the examination of novelty (that is, it is different from the existing technology) when applying for a patent, while similar originality is not examined in copyright registration.
