Count 4: Write less than copy
You copy other people's things, the other side does not take seriously, if move to the serious, careful fox was trampled!

(1) Qiatouquwei, the other party can only sue you for that part of infringement, not the full text, (2) makeover, if you can identify the "change" is only a noun, name, or sentence paragraph expression order, "tort" is the same set up! Plagiarism is not easy, how to be in the absorbing, the real originality comes natural and unrestrained!
Count 5: Be cautious about submitting articles
Passive tort is the most Wohuo, judge your responsibility, mainly see whether there is "subjective negligence." For example, the author for you to contribute, you feel very good, used. The author is a "charlatan", the content is copied from others, others will you alone, or with the author of the court. The key to determining whether you are responsible or responsible is to see if the subject matter is covered within your site. If eight poles can't hit, then there is no responsibility; If the domain is the same, for example, you are a sports website, the suspect content is the analysis of the match, then you should have the ability to judge whether plagiarism, so may be identified as "subjective negligence." For security reasons, it's best to start with a "firewall": sign a contract with the author.
Count 6: Disclaimer of Blame
Tort happened, people find the door to do?

To do so is to participate in the provision of content, a person is a right.
Count 10: Build More "Firewalls"
As the saying goes, many people do not blame the ceremony. For business management, "more contracts, people are difficult to harm." First villain, after the gentleman, more sign the contract will only benefit. Of course, if the contract is a valid contract, otherwise do not work hard. For example, many E-commerce sites have encountered this problem: consumers encounter rights and interests of the site, and the actual responsibility is likely to be the site's partners, such as manufacturers, or distributors. If you signed the contract with these partners in advance, if the customer before the order, and your contract more standardized, more specific, "firewall" a lot, you take the initiative. Soldiers to will block, Prito, there is no website what the problem.
