A criminal case involving information leaks related to miHoYo, the developer of Genshin Impact, has reached its first-instance verdict. Two Bilibili (Chinese video-sharing platform) users were found guilty of copyright infringement and were sentenced to one year and two months and one year in prison, respectively, both with probation. It is the first criminal game leak case under a new judicial interpretation issued by China's top judicial authorities, according to miHoYo.
The infringing videos uploaded by Su and Wu received more than 600,000 and 300,000 views, respectively, exceeding the criminal prosecution thresholds stipulated under the judicial interpretation. The court therefore found that the two individuals met the criteria for criminal prosecution and handed down guilty verdicts.
During routine monitoring, in July 2025, miHoYo discovered that Su and Wu had repeatedly uploaded gameplay videos featuring unreleased versions of miHoYo titles, including Genshin Impact, Honkai: Star Rail and Zenless Zone Zero, without any authorization from the company. The videos, widely circulated within gaming communities, exposed unreleased characters, skill animations and other content that had not yet been officially introduced to players,  miHoYo noted.
After discovering the alleged violations, miHoYo reported the case to the police in accordance with legal procedures. Following an investigation, the police arrested the two individuals involved. 
The case was publicly heard and the verdict was delivered on April 24, 2026. The court ruled that Su was to be sentenced to one year and two months in prison with probation, while Wu was sentenced to one year of detention with probation, according to miHoYo.
Guo Hao, a Beijing-based lawyer, told the Global Times on Thursday that a key significance of the case lies in its further clarification of how game leak cases can be assessed under the Criminal Law.
"In the past, game leaks were more often handled through civil infringement claims or breach-of-contract disputes. In this case, however, the court did not simply determine liability based on whether content was released ahead of schedule," Guo said. "Instead, it considered factors including the scale of dissemination, the nature of the leaked content and the impact caused, and determined that the conduct met the prosecution threshold for the crime of copyright infringement."
Similar game leak incidents have also occurred overseas in recent years. In October 2024, The Pokemon Company suffered a data breach that resulted in large amounts of internal information being leaked online, including employees' personal information, according to overseas media reports. Dubbed the "Teraleak" by the gaming community, the incident was reportedly one of the largest game-related leaks in recent years. The leaked materials reportedly included game source codes, details of future projects and other internal information, according to Nintendo Life, a UK-based gaming news outlet.
Earlier, Nintendo had pursued legal action over the leak of a Pokemon Sword and Shield strategy guide in 2019. According to gaming website Polygon, The Pokémon Company later reached a settlement with the two individuals responsible, who were required to pay $150,000 each in damages.
"From a player's perspective, there is a clear difference between game leaks and normal game discussions," Lu, a member from the Steam gaming community, told the Global Times on Thursday. "Players discussing and analyzing officially released information is part of gaming culture, but obtaining and spreading unreleased content through unauthorized channels can harm the efforts of developers and affect the experience of the entire player community."
Such concerns are also shared by game developers, who view unreleased content as a key part of their creative and commercial plans.
A post by miHoYo on its online account specifies that every unreleased frame of game content represents the design and refinement efforts of its creative teams, while also carrying players' expectations for upcoming updates. Unauthorized early exposure of such content not only infringes upon miHoYo's copyright interests, but also takes away the surprise that players should have when experiencing new content for the first time.

三 | 不过特斯拉也没有直接取消推荐奖励,而是先将福利缩水到了 1000 英里的免费超充额度(虽然后来也没了)。而过去两年里唯一剩下的奖励,就是该公司的太阳能产品了。有趣的是,最近有消息称,特斯拉正在酝酿推出新版推荐奖励计划。其实早在去年,Electrek 就提过一嘴。

四 | 据知情人士透露,特斯拉计划消除(或减少)常见的社交媒体或邮件分享的推荐连接,转而采用基于应用程序的面对面推荐形式。@Teslascope 在周三的一条推文爆料中称,特斯拉推荐奖励项目或很快卷土重来。由最新版本的移动 App 更新可知,其中包含了一些新的文本字符串,且它们与超充里程、官方商品、甚至汽车配件等推荐奖励有关。通常情况下,车企会在需要提振销量的时候,祭出此类促销奖励。但对于特斯拉来说,其本就已经实现了相当瞩目的创纪录销量。至于真相究竟如何,还请耐心等待晚些时候的电话财报披露。
