A total of 190,000 illegal publications – including pirated books, software and audio and video products – were destroyed to mark World Intellectual Property Day, and as part of an effort to combat counterfeit publications and protect intellectual property rights, the Shanghai Press and Publication Bureau said. The event, which took place at Huangpu District’s Teenagers Technology Center, is part of a national campaign held by China’s “combat pornography and illegal publications” office. In the first three months this year, the city seized 277,000 illegal publications and pursued 19 cases of infringement of intellectual property.
