Law bans unauthorized online copyright sharing
The Intellectual Property Protection Law stipulates that it is forbidden to publish or register protected works or sound recordings online without the permission of the rights holder. Violators are subject to imprisonment for no less than one month and a fine ranging from 5,000 to 10,000 Egyptian pounds, or both. Penalties also include the sale, rental, imitation, or display of sound recordings or radio programs without permission, as well as their illegal publication, export, or import. The law imposes stricter punishments in cases of repeated offenses, which can include up to three months of imprisonment and fines up to 50,000 pounds, in addition to confiscation of copies and tools used in the crime. The aim of the law is to strictly protect the moral and financial rights of authors and safeguard intellectual property rights.
