100,000 yuan fine for uploading Olympic videos?Posted by Lydia Wallace, June 20, 2008 5:45 PM
 A Danwei reader alerted us to the following warning recently sent out on China Mobile News: 个人上传奥运赛事录像最高罚10万 ---------------- 12日，国家版权局版权管理司副司长许超透露，个人录制奥运比赛实况后擅自上传，或者视频网站盗播奥运赛事，都将面临最高10万元的处罚。(北青网) Translated, it reads: "Individual will face 100,000 yuan fine for uploading Olympic Games video to the Internet. How effectively this stern proclamation can be enforced is still to be seen.

Comments on 100,000 yuan fine for uploading Olympic videos?Translation is not accurate: "Individual will face 100,000 yuan fine" should be Individual will face up to 100,000 yuan fine So it is the same as MPAA's strategy in the states. Since that didn't do crap in the states. I doubt it will do much in China "So it is the same as MPAA's strategy in the states. Since that didn't do crap in the states. I doubt it will do much in China"---CHU GUO REN What the H-E-double hockey sticks are you talking about? There is no connection between the MPAA and this fine. MPAA deals with ratings. This article talks about re-broadcasting rights and copyright infringement. Please before you turn on your computer turn on your brain. The MPAA is also very very effective and extremely powerful. Yes, it sucks in that upon investigation the MPAA just rates as they choose and the public can't know the raters identities but there is still a choice (although not an economically-wise one) for directors to choose not to submit their films to the ratings system. |

+ David Moser on Mao impersonators (2004.10): I first became aware of this phenomenon in 1992 when I turned on a Beijing TV variety show and was jolted by the sight of "Mao Zedong" and "Zhou Enlai" playing a game of ping pong. They both gave short, rousing speeches, and then were reverently interviewed by the emcee, who thanked them profusely for taking time off from their governmental duties to appear on the show. + Lu Jinbo: Marketing the Wang Shuo brand (2007.06): Larry Lu Jinbo (路金波) talks about how he markets books by Wang Shuo (王朔), Han Han (韩寒), and Annie Baobei (安妮宝贝). + Wang Xiaofeng: Why is SARFT so uptight? (2008.03): A translation of a Wang Xiaofeng blog post about SARFT and their ban on actress Tang Wei.
