The US is also happily the first pioneer of this, with all federal work entirely public domain. This work is invaluable to works like Wikipedia etc. And honestly, places like the UK are ridiculous. They tax the poor people to make the work, and then copyright it? If you make the work from tax money it should be public domain.

Creative Commons non-commercial really doesn't cut it. Of course there is no way of knowing what license they are talking about, because like so many, they refer to "creative commons" as if it were a license, rather than an organization which produces many different licenses, which it is.
