網路在人類現代生活中扮演著一個重要的位置。與此同時,利用網路行使不法及不正當行為、侵害他人合法權利,包括著作權與鄰接權,以致網路服務提供者對著作權與鄰接權產生侵害責任爭議。 在全球化趨勢下,台灣與越南雙方關係日益緊密。網路作為交流的重要管道﹐難以迴避網路著作權與鄰接權侵害之現象。因此,本文以台灣和越南之立法發展比較,同時了解雙方相關網路服務提供者對著作權以及鄰接權侵害責任之法律規定,可幫助各方使用者取得合法授權、保護權利人的合法利益,避免網路服務提供者責任爭議,有助於促進雙方合作關係之發展。 本文結構包括六章,除了前言及結論部分之外,主要內容分成四大部分,分別包括﹕為了確定研究對象,所以第二章先簡介網路服務提供者概念,從介紹網路技術發展情況到探討各網路服務提供者類型及其特點,同時說明網路服務提供者對著作權與鄰接權保護之角色。第三章列舉有關國際條約及一些典型國家的法律﹐特別詳細介紹台灣與越南有關法律規定作為網路服務提供者對著作權與鄰接權侵害責任的法律基礎。著作權與鄰接權具有區域性,則網路有跨國性,網路上著作權與鄰接權侵害責任爭議發生時會引起法律適用問題,本章因此提出不同法律適用原則。每個國家對於網路著作權與鄰接權侵害責任有不同的規定,但是責任基本上僅發生在網路上出現侵害行為時,網路著作權與鄰接權侵害行為是侵害責任的前提。所以,第四章分析網路著作權及鄰接權侵害行為之各因素,包括行為主體、行為主觀面及客觀面以及被侵害的客體。網路服務提供者對其使用者的著作權與鄰接權侵害行為應負責任或應獲得免責是第五章所探討的內容,該章從各方觀點理解網路服務提供者責任歸屬及免責事由,但是偏向責任限制之立法方式,因此特別介紹美國DMCA與歐盟ECD作為台灣與越南立法過程的參考法典,並透過比較台灣與越南整個立法過程及現行有關法律規定,找出兩方的相同與不同點以更了解各方的情況,最後提出本文對研究主題的見解及個人建議。
Internet plays an important role in modern daily life. However, many people abuse it to infringe others’ rights and interests, including copyright and related rights, which arises dispute over the liability of Internet Service Provider (ISP) for copyright and related rights infringement. Because of globalization, bilateral relation between Taiwan and Vietnam is closer and closer. Definitely, making a comparison between Taiwan and Vietnam and taking a study on the both legal systems about ISP’s liability for copyright and related-rights infringement may help users to be licensed to use copyrighted works, avoid dispute over ISP’s liability, and protect copyright and related-rights owners. It is also helpful to improve cooperation development. This thesis includes six chapters, in addition to foreword and conclusion, while the main context is divided into four parts. In order to clarify the study object, Chapter II briefly introduces ISP theme. It starts with the Internet technology development, then describes the variety of ISP and its feature. It also refers to the role of ISP in copyright and related-rights protection. Chapter III gives legal base for ISP liability for copyright and related-rights infringement by describing related conventions and typical national law, especially Taiwan and Vietnam’s law. Copyright and related-rights are domestic related while internet has transnational nature so dispute over copyright and related-rights infringement liability in the Internet will be followed by the question about the application of law. Therefore, this chapter proposes different principle of law application. Each country has its own stipulation regarding to the Internet copyright and related-rights infringement liability, but ISP takes liability basically only because its network causes the infringement act. Thus, to accuse ISP of infringement liability, an infringement act in the network is needed. Therefore, Chapter IV analyzes various factors of the infringement act, including the subject of the act, the subjective side and the objective side of the act, as well as the infringed rights. In Chapter V, it discusses that whether ISP should be liable for its user's copyright and related-rights infringement act or be able to obtain the relief. In this chapter, based on all quarter's viewpoints, it explores those about ISP liability accusation and relief matter, but it is not the whole picture of liability limitation legislation. Therefore, it specially introduces American DMCA and European Union ECD, which are the reference statute for Taiwanese and Vietnamese legislation process, and compares the Taiwanese and Vietnamese legislation process and the present relevant law provision that discovers the similarity and the diversity of stipulation between two sides to know all quarter’s situations.
