This is my main criticism of CC - they are a copyright promotion
organisation and don't see copyright law as fundamentally flawed.

OKF would do well to remember this when talking about open licenses -
in an ideal world we wouldn't need them, but since we don't live in an
ideal world we need to use open licenses to protect ourselves.
