【摘要】 网络技术的迅猛发展,使信息传播更便捷,同时也使网络上的侵权行为日益泛滥。网络用户为了维护其民事权利,常常将网络服务商推上被告席。网络服务商作为网络用户接入、信息内容、管理平台等服务的主体,是互联网发展、普及的中坚力量,可以说如果没有了网络服务商所提供的合法、优质的服务,将严重阻碍互联网的发展。网络服务商的侵权行为是广泛存在的,主要侵权行为体现在通过其所提供的网络服务对权利人著作权、商标权、公民隐私权、名誉权的侵害。如果不通过法律对网络服务商的侵权责任进行追求,就会使受害人的合法权益得不到保障,对社会环境也将造成负面影响。因此,对网络服务商的侵权责任进行研究具有很强的现实意义。网络服务商的侵权存在着“直接侵权”和“间接侵权”的区别。其中,提供内容服务的网络服务商一般承担直接侵权责任,这在理论界无太大争议。而提供中介服务的网络服务商通过为用户提供个人空间、搜索引擎以及BBS论坛服务,本身不构成直接侵权的主体,但是如果其客观上为直接侵权者提供了实质性帮助,则可能构成“间接侵权”。与一些发达国家对于“间接侵权”规则的完善规定比较,我国现行的立法并没有对“间接侵权”作出系统规定。随着一些相关案件的出现,学术界开始对网络服务商的间接侵权责任有了更多的研究和探讨,司法实践部门也深感我国加大这方面立法,使得追究网络服务商的间接侵权责任有法可依是十分必要的。本文从介绍网络服务商间接侵权责任制度的价值入手,考察了国外关于间接侵权责任的规定,并对国外的立法经验进行总结,结合我国现行立法状况,提出建立我国网络服务商间接侵权责任体系的设想。全文分为四个部分:第一部分是对网络服务商间接侵权责任制度的概述。包括网络服务商的概念、分类和国外网络服务商间接侵权责任制度的介绍。第二部分从财产权和人身权两部分分析了网络服务商间接侵权责任的认定标准和归责原则。具体涉及到著作权、商标权、公民的隐私权以及名誉权等方面的间接侵权。第三部分着重分析了网络服务商间接侵权责任的承担问题,包括责任限制、责任承担方式以及抗辩事由。第四部分结合我国立法现状提出了完善立法的建议,认为我国应当对网络服务商间接侵权责任专门立法。

【Abstract】 The fast development of internet technology offers expediency for information communication. Meanwhile, it causes the expanding inundation of internet infringement. Users often accuse the Internet Service Providers (ISP) to claim their civil rights. ISP, as the main body for user connection、information content service and management platform service, is the nucleus of the development and popularization of internet. If there were no legal and high quality service from ISP, the development of internet would be blocked. The infringement actions of ISP can be found all round and they consist of the invasion for copyright、trademark right、privacy right and reputation right. If no legal measures were taken to prevent those infringement actions of ISP actions, the legal interest of the users would not be protected and negative influence on social environment would be brought about. So, the research on the infringement actions of ISP is of great actual significance.The infringement of Internet Service Provider involves "direct infringement" and "indirect infringement". Among them, the service provider which offers the network contents will generally undertake a direct infringement responsibility, about which there is no great dispute in the academic field. The intermediary service promoter which provides personal space, search engine and BBS forum service for the network customers, will not constitute the corpus of direct infringement itself. But it can involve itself in "indirect infringement" if it provides any material help for the direct infringer. Compared with the perfect provision of "indirect infringement" in some well developed nations, the systematical provision has not been set up in the current legislature in our country. With the occurrence of such cases, there are increasing researches and discussions on the indirect infringement responsibility of internet in the academic field. Meanwhile, judicial practice departments also deeply understand that it is necessary for our country to strengthen relative lawmaking to enforce law on the indirect infringement responsibility of Internet Service Provider.This paper begins with the introduction of the value of liability system for the infringement of Internet Service Provider, then reviews the regulation of indirect infringement responsibility in foreign countries and summarizes their lawmaking experiences. Based on the current legislation status in our country, this thesis presents the conception for establishing second liability system in our country. Five chapters are included in this paper. The first chapter focuses on the summary of second liability system, which includes the definition and classification of ISP as well as the introduction of the second liability system in foreign countries. In the second chapter, the identification standard and blaming principle for the indirect infringement responsibility of Internet Service Provider are analyzed from such aspects as asset right and personal right, which involves copyright, trademark right, privacy right and reputation right. Chapter three analyzes the problem of indirect infringement responsibility undertaking for the Internet Service Provider. It is composed of liability restriction, responsibility undertaking approaches and reasons for counterarguments. Finally this paper presents suggestions on perfecting legal system based on the current legislature status in our country and makes a conclusion that the special legislation about indirect infringement liability of Internet Service Provider should be made.
