Abstract:

With the rapid development of China’s economy and the continuous progress of digital technology, the illegal acts of infringing copyright in the digital environment are gradually increasing. Copyright infringement involves various types of works, including original written works, art works, video works, and online games. In copyright infringement cases, when it is necessary to determine whether the works are identical or substantially similar, identification is one of the most important means. This paper goes through the identification of related copyright infringement cases in the past two years, analyses the types of works involved in the cases, the evidence collection of the cases, identification content, and the main identification methods of various works, and puts forward suggestions.

Key words: digital economy, copyright, identification
