Flickr: The need for an all-permissive, non-attribution licensing option
qubodup, February 8th, 2009
I want Flickr to include something like the Public Domain Dedication, but I don’t know how to convince them. I’m afraid I should first ask Creative Commons to create an all-permissive, no-attribution license.
Here’s what I have written so far (for Flickr):
Hello,
I want to be able to have an automatic licensing option to distribute my photos under public domain-like terms, to make using them easier (keeping track of sources is hard work and sometimes attributing all sources is not an option).
14 threads have been started in the Flickr Ideas group, requesting public domain as a copyright option. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14]
At least 8 threads exist in the Help group on the same topic. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8]
The first of these threads was started on 26 January 2005 and the latest on 27 January 2009.
5 threads got replies from group administrators/moderators. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
Which is available as source.
