Abstract | Autorska prava, pored industrijskog prava i srodnih prava, dio su intelektualnog vlasništva. Kao takva, produkt su i kreacija određenog pojedinca, odnosno napravljeno djelo je njegovo vlasništvo i imovina i kal takvo regulirano je i zaštićeno pravnim okvirom. Iako je pravni okvir Republike Hrvatske jako dobro i sadržajno napisan, a dodatno je njeno zakonodavstvo usklađeno s zakonodavstvom Europske unije postavlja se pitanje koliko su autorska prava u praksi zaštićena, pogotovo u vrijeme novih tehnologija i digitalnih medija kada nam je sve dostupno jednim klikom?
Analizirajući zakone dolazi se do jasnih definiranja što je autor, što je autorsko djelo, što su autorska prava, kako se ona ostvaruju, koliko traju i što se čini ukoliko ona budu prekršena. U općenitom smislu zaštite stvari su vrlo jasne, ali ako uzmemo u obzir vrijeme nove tehnologije koje se mijenja iz dana u dan, zakon u zaštiti autorskih prava i ne može baš toliko pomoći. Prvo zakoni trebaju biti tu, takvi kakvi jesu, prateći trendove izmijenjeni i dopunjeni, ali u konkretnom slučaju opisanih primjera kršenja autorskih prava u praksi, točnije kršenja autorskih prava na internetu, nisu dovoljna zaštita. Način zaštite autorskih prava leži u reguliranja sadržaja prije njegovog puštanja na interent, odnosno činjenju potrebnih koraka kako bi se isti zaštitio od nezakonitog preuzimanja i kršenje autorskih prava svelo na minimalnu razinu. Iako ni tada, autorska prava neće biti u potpunosti zaštićena, njihovo nepoštivanje bit će znatno umanjeno, a zakoni ostaju tu da odgovaraju oni koji takve prekršaje i naprave. |
Abstract (english) | Copyright, in addition to industrial law and related rights, is part of intellectual property. As that, they are the product and creation of a certain individual, i.e. the created work is his property and property and as such is regulated and protected by the legal framework. Although the legal framework of the Republic of Croatia is very well and comprehensively written, and additionally its legislation is harmonized with the legislation of the European Union, the question arises as to how much copyright is protected in practice, especially in the age of new technologies and digital media when everything is available to us with just one click?
By analyzing the laws, we arrive at clear definitions of what an author is, what an author's work is, what copyrights are, how they are exercised, how long they last and what happens if they are violated. In the general sense of protection, things are very clear, but if we take into account the time of new technology that changes from day to day, the law in copyright protection cannot really help that much. First, the laws should be there, as they are, amended and supplemented following the trends, but in the specific case of the described examples of copyright infringement in practice, more specifically copyright infringement on the Internet, they are not sufficient protection. The way to protect copyright lies in regulating the content before its release on the Internet, i.e. taking the necessary steps to protect it from illegal downloads and reduce copyright infringement to a minimum level. Although even then, copyrights will not be fully protected, their non-compliance will be significantly reduced, and the laws will remain there to answer those who commit such violations. |
