Orlowski: Creative Commons is “Bogus”

Andrew Orlowski at The Register has a new article on Creative Commons. Orlowski discusses recent problems surrounding copyrighted images being mislabeled as Creative Commons licensed. From the article:

The Creative Commons gang are more interested in evangelising a fixed view of the world, rather than giving users a rich, nuanced and disinterested view of creative digital rights. Perhaps, as dogmatists, they’re predisposed to see copyright as a problem, rather than a set of tools.

Also, Orlowski links to an article by The Media Institute, which provides an objective explanation of the limitations of Creative Commons.
