Have you heard keyword such as intellectual property, copyright, pattern, watermark, plagiarize etc? Well of coz you heard it everywhere. It all about licenses and permission.
If someone creating opensource software, we normally heard it under “Free and open-source software software licenses” such as GNU GPL, BSD, Apache, MIT, Mozilla public, Common public and many more.
How about books, plays, movies, music, articles, photographs, blogs, and websites? Okey,it is also eligible to file for a license. Creative Common license (CC) is one of several public copyright licenses we can use.
The CC licenses are appropriate for all types of content you want to share publicly, except software and hardware. The CC licenses all grant the “baseline rights”, such as the right to distribute the copyrighted work worldwide, for non-commercial purposes and without modification.
The details of each of these licenses depend on the version, and comprises a selection out of four conditions:
| Icon | Right | Description |
|---|---|---|
 |
Attribution (BY) | Licensees may copy, distribute, display and perform the work and make derivative works and remixes based on it only if they give the author or licensor the credits (attribution) in the manner specified by these. Since version 2.0, all Creative Commons licences require attribution to the creator and include the BY element. |
 |
Share-alike (SA) | Licensees may distribute derivative works only under a license identical (“not more restrictive”) to the license that governs the original work. (See also copyleft.) Without share-alike, derivative works might be sublicensed with compatible but more restrictive license clauses, e.g. CC BY to CC BY-NC.) |
 |
Non-commercial (NC) | Licensees may copy, distribute, display, and perform the work and make derivative works and remixes based on it only for non-commercial purposes. |
 |
No Derivative Works (ND) | Licensees may copy, distribute, display and perform only verbatim copies of the work, not derivative works and remixes based on it. Since version 4.0, derivative works are allowed but must not be shared. |

This license is the most restrictive of CC six main licenses, only allowing others to download my works and share them with others as long as they credit back, but you can’t change them in any way or use them commercially purpose.
I choose to CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 in order to be able to protect my own contents from getting stolen. Although things that I write might be full of crap and bulls**t, broken grammar, not interesting but at least it is a way to practice on using the intellectual property rights.
