Thanks for listing his 4 main points.
I always associate Lessig with the Creative Commons family of licenses. When he was first formulating these licenses, I had a publisher return the rights of my Java AI book to me because I was doing a startup and didn’t have time to do a new edition.
I chose a Creative Commons license and released my revised book. Lessig sent me several emails over that time period and I was the featured Creative Commoner on their web site for a few months.
I still release all of my new books with a CC share and share alike, no commercial reuse license.
- brodouevencode 3y agoI personally like and use CC licensed material, even contributing very small bits here and there. To your point this is probably Lessig's greatest accomplishment. His desire for government intervention on the internet at every level is a bridge way too far though.
