Are works that are prohibited from being published or disseminated in China protected by the copyright law?

Works that were prohibited from being published or disseminated did not necessarily have copyright, depending on the specific circumstances of the work. According to the copyright law, after the creation of a work, the author automatically has the copyright, regardless of whether the publication or distribution is prohibited. However, if a work was prohibited from being published or distributed, it did not mean that its copyright would be affected. On the contrary, a ban on publication or distribution would only result in the copyright of the work being temporarily owned by others, during which time the author would still have the copyright of the work. For example, if one, then the work can still be protected by copyright, and the author still has the copyright of the work. Even if the work cannot be sold or disseminated in the market, the author is still free to use, modify, adapt, and publish the work. Therefore, works that were prohibited from being published or disseminated did not necessarily have copyright. The specific situation needed to be analyzed in detail.

These books could be placed on saddles and passed around by riders on the journey or on the roads between towns and villages. 5. Word of mouth: In ancient times, some literary works were spread through word of mouth. And encourage people to read and share. Word of mouth could also be spread through poetry, music, and dance. The way of publishing and spreading ancient literature works is very different from modern literature works, but these methods still have a profound impact on the development and spread of modern literature.

Foreign literature, movies, and music works enjoyed copyright protection in China. According to the "copyright law of the People's Republic of China"(the "copyright law"), works enjoy copyright protection from the day they are created. The author enjoys the right of authorization, the right of publication, the right of translation, the right of adaptation, the right of compilation, and the right to protect the integrity of the work. For foreign literature, film, and music works, they can also enjoy copyright protection in China according to the relevant provisions of the copyright law.

The act of reading and spreading a copyrighteously written work for non-profit purposes does not necessarily constitute an act of copyright violation. According to the copyright law, reading, translating, adapting, performing, and spreading copyright-protected works required the authorization of the copyright owner. If the work is read aloud or transmitted without the permission of the copyright owner, it may constitute an copyright violation. However, if it is for non-profit purposes, that is, not for commercial purposes or personal interests, but for personal hobbies or public welfare purposes, it is legal to read and spread copyrighteously. In this case, the reader does not need to obtain the copyright owner's permission because his actions are not considered an act of copyright violation. It should be noted that even if it is for non-profit purposes, if the works are read aloud or disseminated, it may still damage the legal rights and interests of the copyright owner if it violates the intellectual property rights of the copyright owner. Therefore, it was best to obtain the explicit permission of the copyright owner when reading a copyright-bound work to avoid possible legal risks.
