Abstract
With the recent development in network technology over a few years, digital works can be easily published online. One of the main issues in the field of digital technology is the infringement of digital works, which can seriously damage the data owners’ rights and affects the enthusiasm of the owners to create original work. Thus, more attention is required for the protection of digital copyright as it has a great impact on the development of society. Many digital copyright protection techniques were developed in the past, but still, there are many loopholes in the protection systems to be covered. The protection means are still relatively weak, timeliness is poor, infringement is frequent, a right determination is cumbersome, and the results are not ideal. Aiming at the mentioned problems, this paper proposes a protection technique, which can realize the automatic management of the complete digital rights life cycle on the blockchain using fabric's smart contract technology. The proposed system is based on blockchain technology, which leverages the distributed, tamper-proof and traceable characteristics of blockchain. The system uses smart contracts to manage the full life cycle of digital copyright. The test results show that the proposed system provides effective protection of the digital copyright system and can efficiently confirm the rights of digital copyright.
Highlights
With the development of the internet, digital information technology is replacing books, newspapers, and offline exhibitions by playing the role of the main media in providing information in our daily life
This paper proposes a digital copyright protection system based on the Hyperledger Fabric blockchain network
New digital copyright works management system for protection, trading, and distribution based on Data Ownership Security Architecture (DOSA)was proposed by Miao et al (2018) which can overcome the deficiencies of existing systems
Summary
With the development of the internet, digital information technology is replacing books, newspapers, and offline exhibitions by playing the role of the main media in providing information in our daily life. All these issues have brought huge transaction costs to users of these digital contents, and they sometimes even have to avoid using certain copyrighted works because of their unclear legal status. Software open source/creative sharing licenses are not customized for charging license fees Their main goal is to promote the sharing of copyrighted works, subsequent legal use, sharing and re-use of related attributions, as well as exemption from potential responsibilities and guarantees. Blockchain can significantly reduce the cost of digital copyright protection, improve efficiency, and provide new ways to collect evidence, trade digital assets, and protect the rights of copyright owners This technology has greater transparency and centrality than the traditional publishing technology, and cannot be changed at will. The paper summarizes this research and points out the future research directions
