Eh, not really. China doesn't have much to copyright, as they are pretty much copying everything else. They make their money via bribes and IP stealing.
It's funny because China occupies a part in history that the US did prior. After we gained our independence, we began ignoring the patents and intellectual property laws of Europe. We copied the crap out of them, and made our own improvements. What happened? The US rapidly advanced, new innovations were to be had, and we modernized.
Anyway, bottom line, IP is a fool's errand, copyright law is bunk, and sharing isn't going away.
