It's a simple yet flexible tool for copyright compliance, but most media professionals who use Creative Commons licenses aren't following the rules, Sarah Laskow writes: "Material licensed under CC isn't just free stuff. James Bond had license to kill. CC is your license to copy. And although using CC is not as dangerous as using a .25 Beretta three martinis deep, there are conditions, there are risks, and there are, occasionally, consequences for breaking the rules."
