I have to say sorry, but i do not like to and i do not want to license contents of the heritage of our all human culture, because i do not believe that an "individual and personalised spiritual ownership" exist in our world and nobody have the right for to license it, or for to rule our all cultural heritage.

Because all ideas are (at all hazards) only a small part of the heritage of our all common human culture and nobody can progress an idea without to make a use of our all intergenerational relationships beginning from our roots millions of years ago. Inside of all culturall contents the most parts of it is our all common heritage. Conclusion: Without to use a known language nobody can think about to make a significant artwork and nobody can have an understanding and an insight of our culture without to use a known language. In the theological and in the intellectual meaning is our spirit indivisible and it carries our whole cultural heritage inside and we all interact all the time with this only one big spirit together.

Additional i can not remember when the whole human spezies give a single human, or a single organisation the extra ordinary rights for to rule our all common heritage. Those personalised spiritual ownership is one of the biggest lies in our world and it is today the most criminal defraudation of the human spezies of their hard work of a lot a individual humans ago, of their own rights for to use their contents and for our all evolutionary progress. One of the most importend abutment of our common heritage is our rule and our tradition for the free usement of all cultural contents. I try to stay within this one of the best tradition of our human spezies.

If somebody have allready done spreading out his/her content (no matter in wich form or with or without a licence), then it will be automatically transform to our all cultural heritage and everybody have the right to use this content like he/she want it to use, following of our best tradition since million of years ago. I see there is a problem with the capitalism for to promote the cultural growth. Please understand, i do not want to prone down our cultural exploration and i do not want to abuse all the humans that are working with cultural contents. But our cultural living can also be well-financed with collecting a tax, but without those individual rights for the usement and without individual special licences for spreading out.

You do understand, that under current laws this means NO ONE will be able to take and use the source code IN ANY form? Essentially, lack of license bars you from even looking at the sources at the risk of being sued out of your pants.

Yes, it is the right of every human to use every source in any form.

At this point i am not willing to follow those criminal judgements and i never give up to let the resistance grow about those criminals.
I believe we will hear the deathmelt of their gouverments sooner they will say we become their "new world order".
But thinking about we do not want to act in the same unworthy bearing and with a more clother look to our human rights.
We have to build more respect to the poorest human and to stop a growing misery in the world. I am only one poor man,
but i am not allone to understand that our world is controlled with wrong rules and this message can not be stoped, never more.

Hi,

Yes, it is the right of every human to use every source in any form.

It's the right of every human to be able to receive fair compensation for the work they do; and not have some moron/thief/freeloader tell them they should give away their work for free, live in a cardboard box and eat dirt to survive.

Unless everyone gives their work away for free (e.g. free computers, free cars, free electricity, free housing, free hair-cuts, free food, free beer), expecting programmers and nobody else to give away their work for free is extremely insulting.


Cheers,

The tendency of your reply is correct, but this statement isn't true. For details read the copyright act of your country. It restricts a whole lot of things that can be done with a copyrighted work, but reading is almost certainly not among them.

I hyperbolised a little. The respondent is completely out of this world, however.

Partly this thread is a matter of opinion.

In my opinion, information, such as why the sky is blue, or documentation for a product, should be provided freely. Anything which takes time, money, or effort to produce should be up to the producer.
