Yea thanks! Here it is

I no longer endorse Creative Commons. I cannot endorse Creative Commons as a whole, because some of its licenses are unacceptable. It would be self-delusion to try to endorse just some of the Creative Commons licenses, because people lump them together; they will misconstrue any endorsement of some as a blanket endorsement of all. I therefore find myself constrained to reject Creative Commons entirely.

He's pretty extreme, all or nothing 😂 I guess there's a difference between endorsement and just using them, as illustrated by the fact that he continues to use one of their licenses on his website.

Thanks! 😁

I don't think he's extreme, as much as he recognizes that he's a "lord and savior" type of person, and lots of people take his advice without fully understanding his reasoning.
