This application called "Brush Treasure" is similar to short video platforms such as Tik Tok. Users can get "Yuanbao" as long as they watch it for a certain period of time, and a certain amount of "Yuanbao" can be directly withdrawn from WeChat. Seemingly unprofitable, in fact, there may be a huge consumption trap lurking inside. For example, the platform may use the time when users brush videos, play some false advertisements, or set up various "obstacles" in cash withdrawal.

The content of this kind of APP mainly focuses on health tips, celebrity gossip, feng shui dream interpretation and so on. It's all fake news with no nutrition and no basis. There are too few meaningful articles, just a few words ... Looking at the comments of netizens in the app download store, it is not difficult to find that the promotion of "brushing news to make cash" is popular but rarely praised.

From sign-in, sharing to daily reading and recommending friends, users' use behavior is "clearly marked". However, there are also hidden dangers in model promotion and induced sharing. The quality of some content is uneven, which is very disturbing after the screen is screened; Some use petty profits to induce users to share and spread pornographic materials.

There are many "making money" apps such as "watching news to make money" and "brushing short videos to make money" on the mobile phone. In this regard, experts advise the general public to be vigilant against such apps, and not to be greedy for petty gains and losses.

It is forbidden to brush the treasure App to illegally capture the short video of vibrato.

Recently, Beijing Micro Broadcasting Vision Technology Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Tik Tok") sued the operating company of "Brush Bao" to Haidian Court on the grounds of unfair competition because it believed that Brush Bao App used technical means or manual means to "carry" short videos and comments in Tik Tok App. During the trial, an application for behavior preservation was filed, demanding that the single treasure immediately stop the "handling" behavior.

Haidian court said that after fully listening to the opinions of both parties and carefully examining the relevant evidence presented by both parties, it was determined that the brush explosion did not submit enough evidence to prove that more than 50,000 videos and related comments involved were uploaded or legally authorized by users.

At the same time, according to the corresponding evidence, it is determined that "Shuabao" obtains video files and comments from Tik Tok App by technical means or manual means, and provides them to the public through Shuabao App. In order to effectively control the scale of the behavior involved and the expansion of the damage consequences, and protect the legitimate rights and interests of Tik Tok, Haidian Court issued an injunction and supported Tik Tok's application for behavior preservation.

This is a long-standing problem in the short video industry, that is, short video batch processing. For the first time, the injured enterprise sued for rights protection on the grounds of unfair competition, and it was also the first time that the court regulated this chaos in a prohibited way.

After the popularity of short videos, it has become a common phenomenon that some platforms carry short videos from other platforms in batches, which has greatly hurt creative enthusiasm and industrial development. "For a long time, obstacles to safeguarding rights, such as difficulty in supervision, difficulty in obtaining evidence, and difficulty in obtaining authorization one by one, have been plaguing the platform being carried. It also leads to platform authors often being helpless when defending their rights. "
