Emailing with Larry Lessig today, he said something surprising about Creative Commons.
"No author gives up his copyright when putting content under a CC
license. A CC license is just permissions given up front. It rests upon
a copyright (without the copyright, you couldn't impose the
permissions). But the copyright owner holds the copyright, and just
says, 'here's how you're free to use my work.'" [Scripting News]
