Moonbirds, CC0, and ownership

<p>Handling intellectual property rights continues to cause headaches in the NFT world - we've seen problems with the BAYC terms and conditions, Tiffany &amp; Co.'s lawyer removing clauses from their NFTiff agreement on the fly as the community pointed out over-reaching license terms, and now upset in the Moonbirds community as the pixelated owl images are licensed under the CC0 license.</p> <p>In this episode, I talk about the latter, and discuss why I think we're having problems.</p> <p>It really boils down to two things:</p> <p>- lack of understanding of intellectual property law by ordinary buyers of NFTs, and</p> <p>- lawyers and the legal framework failing to catch up with a shift in the intellectual property landscape</p> <p>The latter is more important, in my opinion.</p> <p>Edited boiler-plate license agreements don't cut it in the NFT world, but that's what we're seeing.</p>
