Creative Commons - Abuse

 Edit: CC: 3.0 - If talked about, please fully credit, including a link to the original article which is this.
Also, according to the picture below, it's valid to say you must link to the original article when you use it. Edit done.
Plagiarism is when you lie about someone's post, possibly without giving the source too.

Good Crediting - Fully linking to the whole source, and not make up stuff from the article including cherry picking and making up stuff from it.
Bad Crediting - Only saying my name, but failure of matching info; Lying about what an article, work, etc.

Lying and/or pretending you made it when that's not the case can be a huge problem. It's generally identity theft. Copy without permission, and lye about it. It's OK to Copy, without permission (Theft is when you remove the original), as long if you don't lie about it! Now be a good boy and stop being a Mule.

Copyright though, isn't needed, that violates Free Culture.
Creative Commons - Without No D. and No.C doesn't.
Public Domain - Free Culture for sure.

Edit: I guess I should post this picture too:

    1. I'm not so sure what you mean?
      Are you talking about those one licenses such as "No Commercial" and "no derivatives"? Those are not "free" much yeah.
      I also looked at your url, I guess you mean there are even other licenses that doesn't support Free Culture? I think I agree too, but at the same time, it's still not as bad as Copyright (Depends) though and there are the main licenses (Such as Attribution only) that is very close to Public Domain free culture, which I do believe helps creativity freedom because certain licenses support "build upon" and such. ;)

      But your sort of right, CC is not free it's self, but can be sometimes maybe, I guess.
