摘要
通知-移除规则应当被塑造为免责规则而非归责规则。如果网络服务提供者接到通知后将涉嫌侵权的信息移除,则应被免除赔偿责任;如果网络服务提供者经判断后认为不构成侵权而拒绝移除,即使事后证明用户发布的信息构成侵权,网络服务提供者也并非当然地承担侵权责任,而应当依据侵权责任构成要件来进行具体的判断。为了维持权利人与被指控侵权的用户之间利益平衡,建议将"通知-移除"的流程修改为:权利人通知-网络服务提供者转通知-被指控用户发出反通知-网络服务提供者判断并处理。
The rule of notice-and-takedown should be devised as safe harbor rule rather than the duties rule. If the internet service provider removes the alleged infringement information upon receiving the notification, it will be exempt from damages liability;If the provider decides no infringement occurs and declines to remove the alleged information, it should not be necessarily liable to the rightsholder, even if afterwards the alleged information is proved to be tortious. The service provider’s liability should be decided by the liability rule. In order to keep the balance between the rightsholder and the alleged user, the procedure of the rule of notice-and-takedown should be reframed as follow: notification by the rightsholder, transfer of notification by the service provider, counter notification by the user, judgement and measurement by the service provider.
