That is not the framework we have. National sovereignty exists and if the Chinese don't want to follow IP law in some way that is their right. Most third world countries wish they couldn't, they just get strongarmed.
It's not a free world when the US and Europe are trying to impose their laws on you, and if you refuse to follow their laws then their citizens are prohibited from dealing with yours.
- ehvatum 5y agoIt is the framework we have; as a result of China’s WTO accession, that’s the framework. They literally agreed to an IP framework.
- sudosysgen 5y agoThen you can try to convince the WTO to impose consequences if it really is the framework. In reality while this would work for a weaker developing country it probably won't work here.
- BobbyJo 5y agoChina might be sovereign, but the professor isn't. Notice how China isn't expected to show up in court.
- sudosysgen 5y agoThe professor is not accused of IP offenses. This is a few steps removed from that.
