Course Piracy and Declining Income: What Is Udemy’s Official Stance?

Hi everyone, I believe your courses can be found on this website: https://www.koudaizy.com/

https://space.bilibili.com/481361060?spm_id_from=333.788.upinfo.detail.click

This site is selling Udemy courses at extremely low prices. Many of us are experiencing a drop in income, which is likely directly related to this website. The site is based in China and has official registration, meaning the person behind it can be identified. We can get this site shut down through complaints. Especially Udemy’s official team should contact their agents in China and take legal actions to resolve this issue.

Please leave a comment under this post to urge Udemy to take action!

This website has zero to do with revenue problems.

No it's not directly related to sites like this.. These types of sites have always existed and always will. And, the people that purchase courses from sites like this would never come to Udemy to "officially" purchase the real course.

I agree that Udemy’s official team should contact their agents in China and take legal actions. However, as @ThomasMitchell mentioned, I believe the revenue problem has nothing to do with this website! Simply, because Udemy has it's own audiance, and it is very clear that the PP ruined the marketplace income.

Course Piracy should not be allowed, even if this is not related to income and revenue!!

Udemy should complaint about this site and take legal action. Now countries are viewing pirarcy with strict compliance rules.

Also Udemy should think technologically, how there courses are pirated so easily.

Hi Benjamin,

Thank you so much for raising this. Please rest assured that we do our best to prevent piracy. In collaboration with our specialized vendor, we follow up on takedown notices to ensure that pages hosting pirated courses struggle to gain traction. We also use SEO and other techniques to make sure that the first results students see when searching are legitimate. To submit a takedown notice for your course, please click here.

You can also learn more about our Piracy Detection Program here.

While we unfortunately cannot prevent every bad actor, we remain committed to continuously improving our efforts to be as effective as possible. For additional questions, I recommend sending an email to policy@udemy.com.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

Thanks for your reply. I want to say that while Udemy is indeed a very large English-speaking market, we can't ignore the fact that there are many other language regions, including the Chinese. This website is clearly harming the interests of instructors in the Chinese-speaking community. Therefore, I don't agree with the idea that this has zero impact on our income. Everyone's interests are equal!
