<p>I learned today that because of the strong Moral Rights protection in the <a href="/tags/philippines/" rel="tag">#Philippines</a> , it is not possible for Authors/Creators (defined as "natural persons" by law) to dedicate/release their work to the <a href="/tags/publicdomain/" rel="tag">#PublicDomain</a> .</p><p>And even if we use 0BSD, MIT-0, CC0, and other similar public-domain-equivalent licenses, we can still sue anyone who:</p><p>1. Misused our name<br>2. Misrepresented us<br>3. Misused our work (downstream)</p><p>All under Moral Rights because we can never waived it under Philippine law. Even with a promise not to sue anyone is not a guarantee.</p><p>So, saying, "This work is under 0BSD/MIT-0/CC0 and I will never sue anyone for whatever reason", won't work under Philippine law. The Creator/Author will always have their Moral Rights as the creator/author of the work. It's completely up to you to trust that they will fulfill their promise. π€ͺ</p><p><a href="/tags/copyright/" rel="tag">#Copyright</a> <a href="/tags/copyleft/" rel="tag">#Copyleft</a> <a href="/tags/licenses/" rel="tag">#Licenses</a> <a href="/tags/sharealike/" rel="tag">#ShareAlike</a> <a href="/tags/freeculture/" rel="tag">#FreeCulture</a></p><p>ππ½ <a href="/tags/ianal/" rel="tag">#IANAL</a> <a href="/tags/tinla/" rel="tag">#TINLA</a></p>
