    Because you are effectively spreading misinformation.

    Are you a lawyer?

    People already struggle to understand copyright. Adding more confusion is doing everyone reading your license a disservice.

    Including a link to a Creative Commons license in a comment footer will not do that.

      Adding a CC link and falsely claiming it’s an anti-AI licence is misinformation and undoubtedly does add confusion.

      I am not. Are you?

      Including a link to a Creative Commons license in a comment footer will not do that.

      It is when you give it a different name which doesn’t reflect the actual behaviour of the license.

        That’s not a different name. It’s a sentence that’s a layman’s description of my intention for including it.

        Initially I was just using the actual Creative Commons license name, but it was confusing people just seeing letters and numbers.

        which doesn’t reflect the actual behaviour of the license.

          Nice how you never answered if you’re a lawyer.
