【摘要】：欧盟法院于2014年2月在Svensson案件中作出里程碑式判决,认定设置超文本链接,使用户可以访问目标网站中的版权内容的行为不构成"向公众传播"行为,除非该链接使"新的公众"可以接入目标网站的版权内容。英国最高法院也在2013年将暂时复制例外规则适用于链接中的缓存复制。文章追溯欧盟以及英国在链接问题上的争论,分析了"新的公众"标准以及暂时复制例外规则在链接版权责任问题中的适用,指出欧盟和英国在链接法律责任问题上仍有遗留问题需要将来司法明确。与中国相关司法比较,分析路径显然不同:欧盟和英国追究设链者责任的直接侵权责任,而中国主要依据间接侵权规则来追究设链者的责任。孰优孰劣,有待时日检验。
[Abstract]:In February 2014, the European Court of Justice handed down a landmark ruling in the Svensson case, in which it found that the setting up of hyperlinks to allow users access to copyright content on the target website did not constitute "dissemination to the public".Unless the link allows New Public access to the copyright content of the target site.The UK Supreme Court also applied the temporary replication exception rule to cached replication in links in 2013.The article traces the controversy over links between the European Union and the United Kingdom, and analyzes the "new public" standards and the application of the temporary replication exception rule to the issue of link copyright liability.It points out that the EU and Britain still have some problems left over on the issue of link liability, which need to be clarified in the future.Compared with the relevant judicature in China, the path of analysis is obviously different: the European Union and the United Kingdom investigate the direct tort liability of the chain setters, while China mainly investigates the liability of the chain setters according to the indirect tort rules.It will take time to test which is the best.
