China’s audacity in flagrantly copying and pirating all it can continues to impress, with the news that an entire Chinese clone site of NicoNico Douga has been created, carrying the very same MADs and copying exactly the signature tickered comments of NicoNico Douga.
The (completely unauthorised) site in question is called AcFun.cn, and it runs much as you might expect a shoddy and inferior Chinese clone site to (that is to say, adequately).
Surely, we cannot help but view these sites as officially condoned, given the zeal with which political sites are censored and the complete apathy shown towards sites such as these?
Although doubtless nobody will do anything about this site, it looks as if they wouldn’t last long if there was such a thing as rule of law in China.
In addition to possible copyright violation of Nico IP, there are apparently patents held by Nico on their tickered text, and of course it practically goes without saying that what video content isn’t lifted from Nico constitutes unauthorised use of full anime episodes and similar.
Still, this is China… And neither are Nico entirely innocent in all this.

Sadly, China made ANOTHER Niconico clone: http://www.bilibili.com/
That makes 2 cloned NND style sites from China.
DONOTWANTTTTT!!!!
well, there are so many chinese things even chinese don't know that. Chinese always think that something should be theirs.
Copying is one of their unique characteristics. Heck, you can even consider it a part of their culture. And in stead of being ashamed of it here are some retards trying to justify these wrongs. So I guess you can’t really blame them cos it’ll be the same as blaming a roach for eating garbage. Man, it wouldn’t be too bad if they come up with a ‘sankakucomplox’ or something one of these days. Then all these shameless and self-justifying peepz can just go patronize their beloved fakes and stop disturbing us here.
obvious troll.
Is there something existing that China didn’t steal already? Chinese people itself are just a copy of other asians if you look at history books.
Erm .. no, Chinese people WERE chinese. China is japans culture father. -.-
you are a copy of adam and eve
