We reported last week on US collecting society ASCAP declaring war on a host of ‘copyleft’ organisations, including Creative Commons. The latter has hit back now. “It’s very sad that ASCAP is falsely claiming that Creative Commons works to undermine copyright,” says spokesperson Eric Steuer. “Creative Commons licenses are copyright licenses – plain and simple, without copyright, these tools don’t even work.
