In fact the IOC itself was not to blame--the committee is very concerned to protect copyrights, and to enable the media in Taiwan to use the Olympic centenary logo without difficulty, it arranged for lawyers in Taipei to handle related matters. Furthermore, as a non-profit organization, the IOC does not make any charge for usage rights.
雖然此事追根究柢，並不能怪奧運委員會，該會其實非常注重著作權的維護，而為了協助台灣媒體順利運用奧會主題設計圖案，更在台北委託律師事務所處理相關事務，奧委會本身屬非營利單位，所有授權使用皆為無償，不收取任何費用。
