Today, change with each passing day, the network copyright problem is immediately convex to appear in the network technique. Internet service provider is the important strength that the network information delivers, becoming coupling network and the bridge of customer. Seeing from the case that take place already at home and abroad, internet service provider is led long repeatedly to pull dispute into the civil case infringement, especially copyright dispute, and become the accused of infringement litigation. It's usually hard to find out the real customer who spreads an infringement information, so the right person stare at the internet service provider. It is placed in an executive and governor of position, and usually has an economic power more than the general customer, so the internet service provider is able to undertake infringement indemnification responsibility. It that how to define the standard and scope of law responsibility of the internet service provider, not only influences the level and quality of judicatory protect, but also relates to the development of newly arisen network servicing business directly, and it also relates to the benefits of numerous network customers. Therefore it is extremely necessary and valuable to discuss law responsibility of the internet service provider.The copyright infringement of internet service provider have "direct infringement" and "indirect infringement" which are different. Among them, the service promoter of the network contents undertakes a direct infringement responsibility generally, which has no dispute too greatly in the theories field. But lie service promoter which provides personal space, search engine and BBS forum service for the customer in the network, oneself can't constitute the corpus of direct infringement, but it can constitute the "indirect infringement" objective if it provides for direct infringement providers a materiality help.Compare with some flourishing nations that have perfect provision of "indirect infringement" , current copyright lawmaking of our country don't have a system provision of "indirect infringement", and there is also little discussion and research about it in our academic circles. In the judicial fulfillment, they usually use "common infringement" rule in《civil law general rule》to handle the indirect infringement case of internet service providers.By the emergence of "baidu" case, academic circles begins to spend more researches and study on the copyright indirect infringement responsibility of internet service provider, and the practice departments are also feeling keenly the necessity that our country enlarge lawmaking of this aspect, to pursue the company's indirect infringement responsibility of the network service to have a method which can be depended on.What pleasure is that the set of the judicatory explain about our country network copyright and the implement of the latest《Protection Regulation of Network Information Dissemination Right》, speed up our country for the lawmaking step of the internet service provider 's copyright indirect infringement responsibility, which fills up an lawmaking blank of our country and is a very great progress compared with the past. But it still needs further perfect, for among them most of the provisions are just general and lack of a practice operation, and they are also not good enough compare with Euro-American and flourishing nations. Finally, this text thinks that only drawing lessons from foreign lawmaking experience, building up 1 set of "indirect infringement" system which is adapt to our country state, be the direction of lawmaking of our country network copyright and further the whole work right legislation.
