Anti-piracy Countermeasures

As an organic whole consisting of a certain number of interrelating and interacting elements, "the piracy" can be defined as an information system, in which pirates serve their purpose of piracy by means of possessing the objects of piracy. The piracy is a historical outcome of publication privileges and private ownership. Prevalence of privacy brings about lots of consequences: it smothers an author's originality and creativity; it jeopardizes the existence of enterprises; it damages the normal market order; it contaminates the investment environment; it decreases the national revenues and employment opportunities; it degenerates the social morality; and finally it lowers the living standards. Traditional Chinese culture and thinking modes, the development of science and technology, the imperfect bureaucratic system , and the incomplete legal system form the supporting system of piracy. The object of piracy having a character of public matter in terms of economics, together with a huge demand market, consumer's winking and bad discrimination, and tremendous benefit all bring about incentive system of piracy. Satisfying morbid psychology, achieving twisted value, pursuing luxurious physical pleasure, and realizing criminal goals are all the factories composing the purpose system. To eliminate piracy thoroughly, we should make great efforts as follows: punishing pirate, breaking the chains of piracy production, enhancing anti-piracy ability, minimizing pirate's illegal benefits and rectifying a deviation of pirate's value.
