Description:
Data isn't like content: it's infinitely remixable, machines churn through it by the bucketload and it isn't covered by copyright. But there are other rights that get in the way of reuse. This panel will tackle how we can free our data more effectively.
Questions
Answered:
  1. What's the difference between data and content?
  2. Why isn't data covered by copyright?
  3. Why can't I just use a normal creative commons license?
  4. What other rights can impede reuse?
  5. What licenses can I use?
  6. How do I apply a license to my data?
  7. What is the public domain?
