What is the philosophy behind a creative commons agreement?
Creative Commons aims to offer an alternative to full copyright by trying to create a bridge between tightly regulated control and wide open freedom. CC hopes to protect the creators of new works while allowing freer use of materials – a “best of both worlds” arrangement. Further, the intention of CC is to avoid problems that arise with respect to copyright and sharing information for research or study. • Creative Commons. “About: History.” http://creativecommons.org/about/history/ • Wikipedia.
