Response Systems against Copyright Infringement

Establishment and operation of the Integrated Control & Observation Platform (ICOP)

Establish a year-round, round-the-clock regular response system against cases of infringement for the ICOP to serve as a control tower, monitoring situations in real time and taking sufficiently swift action to secure the golden hour in responding to infringement
