Introduction
• Until 2001, and before the Creative Commons, the
relationship between the creators, and the users was regulated
only by the copyright approach since 1790 in the US.
• The technological developments and the spread of the Internet
made this relationship more complicated and provided a lot of
tension about restrictions.
• The only way to get benefits of any creativity was to wait until
it becomes public domain.
• An online publisher was using technology to share those
available works after the expiration of the term of their
copyrights.
• But a new regulation, came to extend this availability by
adding years, which made content on the internet more
difficult to access.
• This is how the Creative Commons came to counter such
restrictions of access, sharing, and collaborating.
• A saga of human endeavor started up from 1998 on.

The Sonny Bono CTEA.
• In 1998, Sonny Bono, a US representative, introduced
a new bill to Congress that would be later known as the
Sonny Bono Copyright Term Extension Act.
• It mainly stipulated the extension of copyright for 70
Years instead of 50 since the 1978 act.
• That extension came to be in odd with the potentiality
that new technology allows users to largely benefit of
available works with an easy access around the globe.
• A scholar and a librarian-computer programmer
challenged the new act through two tracks:
• Legally (Courts)
• Practically (legal alternative approach)
Eldred v. Ashcroft
• Eric Eldred is a former computer programmer, systems
administrator, and an online publisher of public domain
works.
• In 1999, He leaded a set of plaintiffs to challenge the
CTEA based on the unconstitutionality of the act.
• They lost in the different judiciary levels until the
decisive loss in the Supreme Court, in the case known
as Eldred v. Ashcroft in 2002.
• Meanwhile, he worked with a law scholar to also find a
legal and practical alternative in case of a loss
• This is how Creative Commons started up in 2001.
What is Creative Commons?
1. Creative Commons:
The Licenses
• CC legal tools help creators to
share their achievements with
others under less binding terms of
“all rights reserved”
• CC legal tools are
• integrated into user-
generated content platforms
• used by nonprofit open
projects
• used by formal institutions
and individual creators.
, +2 billion works under
CC licenses and public domain.
2. Creative Commons: the Organization
• Nowadays, the CC legal tools are hosted by a small
nonprofit organization located in the US.
• Since 2020, the organization is focusing on
empowering different actors of the movement.
With tree strategic goals:
• 1.“Advocacy: Reshape the open ecosystem to
support equitable and prosocial sharing in the
public interest.
• 2.Innovation: Enhance the open infrastructures to
foster sustainable and ethical sharing in the public
interest.
• 3. Capacity Building: Make knowledge and
cultural heritage assets as openly accessible as
possible.”

3. Creative Commons:
the Movement
• In 2001, a group of activists, lawyers,
policymakers, creators, people, and institutions
formed a coalition around Creative Commons
and open licensing.
• A new offshoot of the movement known as
CCGN (The Creative Commons Global
Network) has over 600 members, and over
40 chapters around the world.
• To involve, the CC’s Network Platforms are open
to individuals and institutions in connection to
the open movement everywhere around the
globe.
