Personally, I think that something like the Creative Commons License

affords no protection against the misstatement, exploitation, and
diffusion of a work.

Response:

Which Creative Commons License?  Attribution-Noncommercial-No Derivative
Works?  Have there been problems with authors publishing with PLoS, which
uses just the CC attribution license?  Is this in reaction to CC's Science
Commons project<http://science.creativecommons.org/>?  Sorry if this
sounds snarky; I'm just curious.

Thanks, Bill
