What is Creative Commons and how does it work?
● CC licenses built on traditional copyright law● works within existing system by allowing
movement from “all rights reserved” to “some rights reserved”
● CC gives creators a choice about which freedoms to grant and which rights to keep
● CC minimizes transaction costs by granting the public certain permissions beforehand

Important License Attributes 2
● License runs with the work; recipient may not apply technological measures or conditions that limit another recipient’s rights under the license, e.g. no DRM
● no warranties● license terminates immediately upon breach● CC is not a party to the license
![Page 15: Open licensing workshop at OGP Civil Society Day](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051515/54c737bc4a79590c6e8b4778/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
CC0 Public Domain Dedication
● read “CC Zero”● universal waiver, permanently surrenders
copyright and related rights, placing the work as nearly as possible into the worldwide public domain
![Page 16: Open licensing workshop at OGP Civil Society Day](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051515/54c737bc4a79590c6e8b4778/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Public Domain Mark
● not legally operative, but a label to be used by those with knowledge that a work is already in the public domain
● useful for very old works where we know it is in the public domain
● only intended for use with works in worldwide public domain
![Page 17: Open licensing workshop at OGP Civil Society Day](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051515/54c737bc4a79590c6e8b4778/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Examples of CC open license adoption
![Page 18: Open licensing workshop at OGP Civil Society Day](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051515/54c737bc4a79590c6e8b4778/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Examples of country-specific open government license
![Page 19: Open licensing workshop at OGP Civil Society Day](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051515/54c737bc4a79590c6e8b4778/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
● “License free”● “Public domain”● “No restrictions on use”● “CC0”● “Most open licensing terms
available”● “CC BY is default”● “Enable free reuse, including
commercial”● “Open Definition is baseline”
● all about minimizing restriction, maximizing reuse!
Many statements, common goal
![Page 20: Open licensing workshop at OGP Civil Society Day](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051515/54c737bc4a79590c6e8b4778/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
● Public domain = problems solved● Even better: harmonize limitations &
exceptions● Ongoing “license envy”● So be it, but keep out “poison” clauses
that kill interoperability● Example: OGL 2.0● Good moves: Open Definition WG,
LAPSI 2.0
Challenges
![Page 21: Open licensing workshop at OGP Civil Society Day](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051515/54c737bc4a79590c6e8b4778/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
So what should we use?
● Codify & harmonize limitations and exceptions to copyright!
● CC0 to waive copyright worldwide● Open Definition as baseline
○ means, reuse for any purpose (even commercial), with at most requirement to attribute and sharealike
○ conformant licenses = http://opendefinition.org/licenses/
● Push for most progressive policies, as fewer restrictions leads to increased reuse
