You might be wondering what I'm waffling on about, and to put it simply it's all to do with our best friend, the Internet. The internet is basically a source that copies everything, everything you read online, has basically come from somewhere else, and that has come from someone else, and that has come from something else, well, you get the idea right? The thing with information being copied from everything and everyone else is there has to be rights of who has created that orginal work, if not no credit is given to them. There are times when the rights have to be asked for when wanting to copy information etc. P.D (public domain) - free, no rights, which are not owned or controlled by anyone. The term indicates that these materials are therefore "public property", and available for anyone to use for any purpose. C (full copyrights) gives the author of their original work exclusive right for a certain time period in relation to that piece of work, and CC(creative commons) - legally bound contract . These licenses allow creators to communicate which rights they reserve. Creative Commons basically saves the world from failed sharing. It has tools to make choices, creativity and connection.
