If I waive it to anyone, a 'culture of asking before doing' may come be created, so I wanted to make it explicit. It doesn't factually, but culturally. If instead everybody agrees to just copy with attribution, people 'feel' less obligated to talk to an author, thus more free. something like that :) | |

If your concern is the user being able to do as they please (more than anything else, for the sake of example), why wouldn't you like to waive that? | |
| Jan 11, 2011 at 11:29 | comment | added | Stefano Palazzo | "I think he will agree in most cases if asked." → I don't want you to have to ask for permission! The License is also there to ensure that you have the freedom to re-use my content. This is the most important bit. It's true that license holders can grant exceptions to omit attribution, and if you should ask me I most likely will, but I don't like to, because it restricts your freedom. Giving attribution, even when in doubt, is the easiest way to protect that freedom. | |
