Two suspects who were offering broadcast programs from Japan and other countries to viewers through &#8220;\u6674\u5929TV&#8221; were arrested. In response, on August 8, the CIB issued a press release on the matter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During the search of the locations related to &#8220;\u6674\u5929TV&#8221; at the time of the arrests, a total of 269 items were seized, including 72 ISDs, 72 decoders, 2 servers, and 2 computers. The investigation revealed that &#8220;\u6674\u5929TV&#8221; had been in operation for two years, with over 1,000 units already sold, and the estimated damages exceed 1 billion Taiwan dollars (approximately 4.5 billion yen as of August 9). In response to this incident, the police are once again warning that using illegal TV viewing apps and ISDs not only supports the infringement activities of illegal operators but also harms the rights holders and can lead to the risk of personal information leaks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>CODA has been cooperating with the Telecommunications Investigation Corp under the command of the CIB in investigating internet crimes in Taiwan related to Japanese content, including ISDs, illegal apps, and infringing websites, leading to the criminal crackdown on numerous infringement cases. CODA will continue to work closely with local investigative agencies to protect Japanese content in Taiwan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This activity was part of a project entrusted from the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"640\" src=\"https:\/\/coda-cj.jp\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/20280808image002-1024x640.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-541\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cms.coda-cj.jp\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/20280808image002-1024x640.png 1024w, https:\/\/cms.coda-cj.jp\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/20280808image002-300x188.png 300w, https:\/\/cms.coda-cj.jp\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/20280808image002-768x480.png 768w, https:\/\/cms.coda-cj.jp\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/20280808image002.png 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Scene of the press conference<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"640\" src=\"https:\/\/coda-cj.jp\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/20280808image001-1024x640.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-542\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cms.coda-cj.jp\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/20280808image001-1024x640.png 1024w, https:\/\/cms.coda-cj.jp\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/20280808image001-300x188.png 300w, https:\/\/cms.coda-cj.jp\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/20280808image001-768x480.png 768w, https:\/\/cms.coda-cj.jp\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/20280808image001.png 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Seized APP, ISD and other equipment<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>(translated by automatic translation system)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u25a0About the CODA project \u201cJoint Enforcement\u201d<br>\u3000<a href=\"https:\/\/coda-cj.jp\/en\/activity\/enforcement\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">https:\/\/coda-cj.jp\/en\/activity\/enforcement\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u25a0Reference release\uff1aThe Criminal Investigation Bureau in Taiwan and IFACT-GC, a Greater China intellectual property protection organization, visits CODA<br><a href=\"https:\/\/coda-cj.jp\/en\/news\/334\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">https:\/\/coda-cj.jp\/en\/news\/334\/<\/a><br>\u25a0Reference release\uff1aPresentation of a plaque of appreciation to the Criminal Investigation Bureau and IPR police in Taiwan<br><a href=\"https:\/\/coda-cj.jp\/en\/news\/274\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">https:\/\/coda-cj.jp\/en\/news\/274\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size\">\u30fc\u30fc\u30fc\u30fc\u30fc\u30fc\u30fc\u30fc\u30fc\u30fc\u30fc\u30fc\u30fc\u30fc\u30fc<br><strong>About CODA<\/strong><br>CODA (Content Overseas Distribution Association) was established in 2002 at the call of the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry and the Agency for Cultural Affairs to promote the overseas development of Japanese content and take anti-piracy measures. Japan\u2019s proud content, including music, movies, anime, broadcast programs, video games, and publishing, plays an important role in enhancing the nation\u2019s international presence and economic growth. As digital technology becomes more widespread, it is even more significant to protect Japan\u2019s content from increasingly artful copyright infringement and promote the content industry\u2019s development. CODA contributes to the deterrence and detection of online and other piracy, by sharing knowledge with relevant government agencies, organizations, and companies in Japan and abroad, to engage in direct and indirect anti-piracy measures, as well as public relations activities.
