Licenses on your blog
Hi All,
I am not much into license stuff... but I have always used Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported License. Which allows anyone to copy part of my article with due credit to me and not making money out of it.
Recently I visited few blogs (from co-indi bloggers). They had this Creative Common (Same as mine) as well as protected (using CopyScape or stuff like tha).
Now I am confused as whether users are allowed to copy from these blog or not? It is kind of contradictory (isn't it?).
I would like to hear your view on it. Which one should a blogger prefer?
It's bit of contradictory as CC allows re-use with proper attribution, but CopyScape warns you to copy a single line
It's not contradictory, because creative commons allows the reuse only by the manner mentioned by the author. In my case, I have given the message, written permission of mine is needed for redistribution.
So you can clearly mention, what do you mean exactly by reuse and what are your conditions
