I don't have many big regrets, but one of the few I have is not having enough photographs or videos from my teenage years to share with my partner and future generations.

You keep repeating this in various comments throughout this submission- can you share links to the materials of the union(s) you are referring to and point out the relevant sections where they are advocating for this? I am curious to take a

There is a very interesting and fast-growing (video) niche of African Americans who have moved to China sharing their experiences of daily life in different Chinese areas ranging from these megacities to rural towns and villages. The common

There are many - but FSF, OSI and their proponents typically advocate quite strongly against their use.

I guess I must have imagined all the licenses which treat individual and corporate use as distinct. Edit: I'll simplify the above to "the statement in the parent comment is demonstrably not true"
