Is Creative Commons against copyright?
Answer
No. Creative Commons is not against copyright. Creative Commons licenses are copyright licenses, and depend on the existence of copyright to work. Creative Commons licenses are legal tools that creators and other rights holders can use to offer certain usage rights to the public, while reserving other rights. Those who want to make their work available to the public for limited kinds of uses while preserving their copyright may want to consider using CC licenses. Others who want to reserve all of their rights under copyright law should not use CC licenses.
