云计算服务平台适用避风港规则的局限性及其破解

相较于其他的网络服务提供者,云计算平台在技术特征上具有服务的糅合性。云平台需要遵循"回避用户内容"的伦理要求,同时具有"糅合服务层级"的实践样态,导致其在适用避风港规则时在主体适格性和对策可能性等方面存在局限。我国应当坚持避风港规则在平台知识产权治理中的原有地位,作为回应,建议将以云平台为代表的新型网络服务提供者在立法中加以明确,强化避风港规则的包容性。必要措施上,秉承比例原则的思路,对于一般侵权行为,云平台可以采取相对缓和的"三振出局"结合合同责任的"分段式措施";只有对于重复侵权、恶意侵权等情节严重的行为,方能采取"釜底抽薪"式的制裁手段。
