News Title: “Gamer Found Guilty of Leaking MiHoYo Game Content, Ordered to Pay 500,000 Yuan”
Keywords: Leak, Compensation, Ban
News Content: The Pudong New District Court of Shanghai recently held a public trial and rendered a verdict in a case involving a game tester who illegally obtained and disclosed unpublished information about game characters without authorization. The defendant, surnamed Chen, a tester for the game “Beyond the Ashes: Star Rail” by MiHoYo, was found guilty of violating commercial secrecy after unauthorizedly recording and sharing the game’s test content. The court ordered Chen to pay 500,000 yuan to MiHoYo, the game company.
According to the court’s decision, during the game testing period, Chen violated the confidentiality agreement by repeatedly recording game characters, skills, and scenes without permission and leaking this information to the public. This act not only violated MiHoYo’s confidentiality agreement but also violated the provisions of the Anti-Unfair Competition Law regarding the protection of commercial secrets. The court determined that Chen’s actions constituted a violation of MiHoYo’s commercial secrets and therefore ordered him to cease his infringing behavior and compensate for the losses.
The court also instructed Chen to issue a statement within 30 days of the verdict to eliminate the impact of his actions and to promise not to leak or disseminate any unpublished game content of MiHoYo in the future, nor to infringe upon the legitimate rights and interests of MiHoYo.
This case serves as a reminder to game testers to strictly adhere to the confidentiality agreements of game companies and to respect intellectual property, avoiding causing losses to others due to personal actions. It also demonstrates the court’s importance of protecting commercial secrets and is significant in maintaining fair market competition.
