360 lost the lawsuit, 5.1 million lost to the Sogou

"Monday See", this source from the "Entertainment Weekly," chief editor of Xie's network of hot words, the general public to push it to another level of meaning, after the article Liade, we often in Monday will be caught in a variety of tearing and thriller, to find common ground, that is "Monday see", Never good news.

January 19, another Monday. Sogou Browser official microblogging, issued a heavy news, with the plan is the second Intermediate People's Court of Beijing, the verdict, the contents are:

"Sogou win 360 unfair competition case, won the highest compensation in the industry history" Beijing Second Chinese court verdict, 360 security guards obstruct Sogou browser users to set the default browser, constitutes unfair competition, was awarded compensation of 5.1 million yuan. The court found that 360 as a security service enterprise, at the same time operating a non-security products, it is both a referee and a competitor of the browser, can not double review standards, can not be a security enterprise for users to choose. ”

Sogou official said 5.1 million yuan compensation is the highest industry history. After looking up the amount of compensation for 3,600 lawsuits since 2010, I believe this is not a false remark. Before this record holder, is the 3Q War when Tencent received compensation, the amount of 5 million, and was 360 directly in the Golden Hill Network Shield, only received 350,000 yuan of economic compensation.

In fact, from the depth and breadth of the damage, the 3Q war is far more than the 360 of the Sogou browser's small attack. May even Zhou oneself also to wonder, used to be 3.5 million, this time how muddled broke the record.

First, Zhou lost to his familiar jurisprudence. The legal term "unfair competition", which has long been around for years, has been a case of losing the court, but the old Zhou can be called the entrepreneur who has the best knowledge of unfair competition laws in China. He knew that the court's decision was light and that the compensation was a little bit more than the benefits it could get. In China, the illegal cost of unfair competition is extremely low, which is the root cause of old Zhou dares to commit the risk again and again.

But after the case, things changed. In 2015, the first case of unfair competition, so that the old week paid 5.1 million yuan tuition. Old Zhou may need to revisit the area that he once knew best. Old week is like a see rain after the small water WA jumped into a step on the toddler, although it will splash a mud, but will reap incomparable happiness, but this time the old week jumped in to find out, this special Mody is a well.

Second, Zhou lost to the double standard of 360. This is the contents of the court's verdict, the 360 security guards compared to the "referee", 360 browser is a contestant, this dual identity itself is not very reasonable, but in view of the current Chinese Internet environment is basically directions situation, the Court does not seem to do more to unfold. But the acquiescence of dual identities does not mean acquiescence in double standards. Comprehensive look at the past 360 due to unfair competition and lost the lawsuit, most of the users are induced to unload the competitor's products, belong to attack type, but this, security Guardian and browser Double, seems to be operating the user's computer.

Finally, Zhou lost to his "record". More than 360 years to lose a lot of lawsuits, although sometimes active sometimes is passive, but also is a repeated defeat and repeated war. I would like to believe that our judicial justice, not because of a person or enterprise lost a number of lawsuits, it affected the judge's psychological judgment, the special label on his body. I said that the record is 360 in the process of unfair competition, every time a lawsuit, the court will almost request 360 to apologize, but 360 never really apologized, this heavy punishment, there is obviously a division of the determination to limit their behavior.

Write to the end of 360 today's share price, really is in accordance with the established routines, lost the lawsuit, the stock price is in the market. For a company that has joined the tens of billions of dollars, 5.1 million is still just a few of the ups and downs in the stock market.
