Ryan King has created a funny spoof of Creative Commons licenses–the Uncreative Uncommons
Humor Link Back Don’t Repeat 0.1beta3 license–compare to the Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 2.5 license. Can you use hu-lb-dr? Nope:
The UU license is itself availble under the UU license, which means, no. See stipulation #3: “You may not paraphrase, repurpose or in any way retell the content. It is like “telling someone else’s joke” and that’s not cool.”
Ha ha.
Someone ought to create a CC license deed spoof for EULAs and DRM:
- Owned. Use of this work allows licensor to hack your computer.
- Gagged. You may not criticize this work.
- …
See the EFF’s A User’s Guide to EULAs for more ideas.
