Image copyright cases account for 40% of infringement, and the Beijing Internet Court proposes to standardize the image copyright market.
On July 7, the Beijing Internet Court held a press conference to explore the causes of image copyright disputes, promoted the resolution of disputes at the source, and issued a proposal to regulate the market for image copyrights. Since its establishment on September 9, 2018, the Beijing Internet Court has concentrated on hearing network-related copyright cases in Beijing. Among them, image copyright cases accounted for the largest proportion. From the establishment of the court on September 9, 2018 to June 30, 2020, the Beijing Internet Court has accepted a total of 64,473 cases, of which 49,855 were copyright cases, accounting for 77%, and image-related copyright cases accounted for more than half of all copyright cases.
