Copyright Violations Still Rampant at Chinese Theme Parks
Hello Kitty 2008 Olympic Edition [unlicensed]
Four months have passed since the Japanese media brought world attention upon China’s blatant copy of Disneyland, so a Japanese variety show decided to visit China’s amusement parks for an update. What did they find? While the infamous Shinjingshan Amusement Park removed some of its most blatant violations, it still has some work to do. There is also widespread unlicensed usage of copyrighted characters going on in other parks.
The proof is in the video/pictures:
