Was reading the article "Creative Commons is Bad for Photography" this morning and I wanted to take an opposing view.
The article uses the example of Virgin Mobile taking Creative Commons off of Flickr and using it in advertising without asking permission first. While this sounds awful, one has to understand how Creative Commons (CC) works. CC is a copyright license that allows the copyright holder to restrict certain rights.
