An important distinction is slowly being uncovered about the definition of the term "fediverse." Who is it that gets to decide what this place is? How are we being represented? These are not easy questions to answer and if we don't do a better job describing ourselves, then the job will get done for us by people who don't understand the underlying values we hold. #fediverse#meta#threads
It was first uploaded, AFAIK, in Wiki Commons by Eukobos (I think it's Eudaimon too), dedicated to the #PublicDomain through #CC0#CCzero.
It was June 2018.
No one submitted other proposals so it became the accepted logo of the #Fediverse. Variations from other users based on the same logo also came out later.
This list only contains accounts for security bsides, events, and conferences found in the fediverse / :mastodon: with some post history. I will regular update this post as more events migrate here. For hacker meet-ups and local DEFCON / 2600 groups, please refer to the link below.
History lesson: @PLOS created the symbol and put it in the #PublicDomain with #CC0. https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Open_Access_logo_PLoS_transparent.svg
Great news. Last year's release of the IRR related to #Copyright stated that a registry will be created for Filipino works, and works produced in the Philippines, in the #PublicDomain.
In addition to the above, the IRR also finalised that any Philippine government works, unless otherwise specified, are now automatically in the Public Domain.
PS: I support this move. It will help establish ROR as the #standard ID for institutional affiliation. RINGGOLD IDs are #proprietary and ROR IDs are in the #PublicDomain under #CC0.
'The J. Paul Getty Museum announced today nearly 88,000 images of artworks from its collection are now available for free download on its Open Content database under Creative Commons Zero (CC0).'
Die Wartezeit im Zug habe ich mal schnell genutzt, um ein neues Printmotiv für Sticker zu erstellen. Steht unter #CC0 und kann gerne verteilt werden, wenn ihr auch gegen #Demeter und Schwurbel im #Bio-Essen seit.
We're excited to be joining an ever-growing number of signatories that committ to
✅ working toward making openness the default for research information;
✅ working with services and systems that support and enable open research information;
✅ supporting the sustainability of infrastructures for open research information;
✅ and supporting collective action to accelerate the transition to openness of research information.
In our context, we work hard to make that happen by providing an #opensource platform for small, scholar-led, and university publishers to manage and disseminate fully open #CC0#metadata for #OAbooks - which is of particular relevance to the #Humanities#SSH!

Since the J. Paul #Getty#Museum launched its Open Content program back in 2013, we’ve been featuring their efforts to make their vast collection of cultural artifacts freely accessible online. They announced an expansion of access in that they’ve made nearly 88,000 images free to download on their Open Content database under Creative Commons Zero #CC0 : You can copy, modify, distribute and perform the work, even for commercial purposes, all without asking permission.”
Currently really fired up because someone on FreeSound.org listed a song as #CC0, but is demanding #attribution in the #comments and claiming #copyright on #YouTube videos. I think he just doesn't speak English well and doesn't know the difference between CC0 and CC-BY. But man am I aggravated by the whole thing.
