     If I can't right now do you think it invalidates the reality of it ?
     You can just look at EULA licenses where interpretation of OEM windows license is cancelled when the motherboard is changed but not all country agrees on that interpretation.
     I even recall the some states in the US don't interpret them in the same way. Just look at patent trolls for example, legal in some states.

     @romin The GPLv3 was made to be worldwide compatible with software laws, while the CC was made to be worldwide compatible for ART, CC cannot properly cover software because of how software is interpreted in various country/culture/languages, that's why the GPLv3 was made to reduce ambiguity at maximum so that laws don't bullshit around it.

     @romin @mangeurdenuage in understand the point though, usually having a cc license on software is just annoying, but cc0 is not really a license at all

     @romin @lain @mangeurdenuage software licenses are fun. Plan9, everyone's favorite operating system, got publised under 4 different open source licenses. The more licenses the better. What better software freedom is there than to let people pick what conditions they are allowed to use the software?
