Alright, y’all. Follow-up on this poll as promised…

Creative Commons published it. Afterward they shared their perspective on AI vs CC content. In short, “to get a sense of the various views on this question, we launched a Twitter poll where nearly half of respondents said, ‘it depends.’ We agree.”

They made some questionable comments about it…

“Source code provisions” are an essential aspect of copyleft licenses — even for those that are designed for non-software works.

Much work remains to determine how to draft a “source code provision”. Copyleft-next hopes to get there eventually. Maybe #CreativeCommons could help!

This 2018 interview with Emily Richards (aka #MadameSnowflake), highlights a range of issues #ccMixter have had with CC-license compliance on YouTub. Things I hadn't thought of too, like how to detect posting other people's CC music as if you're the creator;

Makes me wonder how all this could be handled on PeerTube servers, and other media hosts in the fediverse, to make the experience better for both artists and hosts.

- Researcher publishes article in journal, using #CC BY.
- ProQuest republishes article, with author, title, date, DOI, licence. Also, with terrible layout, but without images.
- Their DOI doesn't link anywhere. You need to type "https:/doi.org/", add the DOI, paste URL, to find the actual publication. Grey zone of CC BY requirements?
- GS indexes the publication and provides the ProQuest link instead of the proper URL.

Aaargh.

FYI "Stand up" is geek jargon, for setting up a new server. To "stand up an instance of Mastodon", is to set up a new server running a copy of the Mastodon software.
