@petrillic@hachyderm.io Worse is when you have folks in other juristictions use a "non-license" that isn't legally accepted like "#PublicDomain". #0BSD is by far the most permissible for #Software, but #licensing may have good reasons for beibg chosen.#CC0 is the closest to "public domain" (except the authorship disavowal part) for creative works (incl. writing)I'm not a lawyer and AFAIK there's only #downstream forward compatibility for #copyleft, so yeah, not easy if impossible!

@ajroach42@retro.social 😬 Geesh. I'm excited to watch it, so thanks for the moderation! It's hard to believe this is ~100 years old. https://youtu.be/7x_1e1Rhgz4 Will it be on the #NewEllijayTV #peertube, too? #CommunityBroadcastingNetwork #CBN #PublicDomain #CreativeCommons

As of March 2026, the US #Copyright Office and several international bodies maintain that #AI generated material, without significant human “creative control”, cannot be copyrighted. This means that AI generated material often resides in the #publicdomain, making it impossible to enforce any license terms on the material.
