I wish if some one could come up with a license scheme in which the re-user will explicit state that the remix need not be endorsed by the main author. But still, the concern (Kai has) shown is that the work will still be used by bad guys. I replied to Kai saying that 99 good guys should not be deprived for 1 bad guy. "free speech"? well, there has to be a limit in every thing.... (the concept of having society :) ). The only thing is where you define the limit, which is very subjective. :( ... true, like you mentioned before, we would not have used steep’s songs in drake video if we had to take permission from them.

It'd be cool if you could bcc me on the emails like this that you send in the future. That is the same response I got from Allison Crowe's manager, Alex. It's a genuine concern, but I don't like it at all. That's like saying "We aren't going to waive this right, not because we don't want our work to get remixed, but because we want to limit free speech." Under a CC license (apart from CC pd), you can't use a work in such a way that it looks as though the original author endorses your work. In a case like this, they would probably have to explicitly state, "Pornophonique does not necessarily endorse our views." And besides, the whole point of CC is to create a frictionless environment between creators, consumers, and reusers. It's nice that they will say yes if I ask them, but why should I have to go through the hassle of asking them? What if I didn't know how to contact them? Copyright persists beyond death, so what happens when they die and I have to hunt down whoever inherits their rights? nd really defeats the point of CC and cripples creativity.
