How to protect patent rights in the internet age?

A: Today, with the gradual popularization of the Internet and the change of people's lifestyles, the network industry has become an important engine of China's economic growth. At the same time, the copyright protection issues involved in the network industry have become increasingly prominent. Internet has changed the traditional interest pattern among information owners, disseminators and users, and triggered a fierce conflict between copyright owners and network technology industry. Under the network environment, the vigorous development of online products such as online music, online video and search engine has brought unprecedented challenges to copyright protection.

Implant technical measures into the protection of online works and use electronic evidence in litigation. Internet intellectual property infringement disputes have always faced the problem of obtaining evidence. Electronic evidence has the characteristics of large amount of information, rich content, diverse forms of expression, convenience and efficiency. It is listed as an effective type of litigation evidence, and a new way to solve network infringement disputes is put forward, which will promote the rapid and effective settlement of such cases. In order to ensure the security of information system and the intellectual property rights involved in the network, people have developed a series of information security technologies and put them into application, mainly including the following technologies: encryption technology, digital signature technology, digital watermarking technology and controlled replication technology.

Information and communication technology is a double-edged sword. With the continuous development of network technology and network economy, problems about network intellectual property protection will appear constantly, but the problems cannot be the reason why we can make technology stagnate. Only by paying close attention to the development trend of network intellectual property rights, constantly discovering new problems and formulating a reasonable long-term mechanism to protect network intellectual property rights can we effectively protect network intellectual property rights.
