I have no issue with people going after China. I'm not a hexbear/ml stooge. It is possible for two things to be bad. It is possible for something about a bad entity to be neutral or at least unsurprising. Which is how I would describe China's lack of real interest in engaging with, from their perspective, the global order's new fad interest in intellectual property rights.
Then you should've made that argument instead of arguing that it's justified because centuries ago something was stolen from them.
But I'm not sure how you got the impression China has no interest in engaging with the IP rights when last year they filed more IPs than anyone else in the world.
Explained is not the same as justified.
I would have thought this was obvious but forcing your rivals to abide by their own rules while flouting them yourself is not an endorsement of those rules, it's a mockery of them.
Explaining means you actually explain your point instead of throwing out random examples of others doing something similar and then mockingly asking "I wonder why they wouldn't care".
You also seem to be moving the goal post with every post. You said China doesn't care to engage in IP fad, I showed China absolutely does engage in it. Now you're saying of course they do because they flount the rules themselves. Actually they don't. A few years ago Beijing IP court decided a Chinese artist had to pay around half a million to a Belgian artist for plagiarizing his work. I guess you're about to find another excuse to shift the goal post once again.
You think I'm going to shift the goalposts for one example? Ok, yeah that definitely overrules literally decades of behaviour. You win. Here's your Internet reward for the best argument. ⭐️
You mean decades of behavior of which you so far haven't presented even a single one. Guess what, one example is better than 0 examples.
You want examples of Chinese companies disregarding copyright? Uh.
www.aliexpress.com? Or, yknow, the actual article we're commenting on?
I was expecting something where the Chinese IP courts rule in favor of breaking IP laws or at the very least turn a blind eye. This current article doesn't count because there's no resolution here. As for AliExpress, they have an entire process in place to handle IP infringement and they actually ban sellers off the platform if they continue infringing.
