Copyright for software makes it incredibly difficult to just fire and forget about a piece of code. I do not want attribution, I do not want to be held liable for it, I do not want to give support.
In the "default for-profit" view of copyright, not even wanting attribution is something that completely breaks the system and it saddens me.
- dfox 6y agoIt is the other way around. The concept of public domain only works in countries (eg. US) that have the common law for-profit copyright approach. In civil law jurisdictions where the copyright legislation more closely follows the idea of Berne convention the only way how something can enter "public domain" is by its copyright protection expiring.
