I do understand that another country might think that way, however, I do
sometimes wonder how they arrive at a contract being in place without a
meeting of the minds and without consideration.
Along these lines, is there some obligation on the part of people using CC
licenses to understand the legal implications of the licenses in every
jurisdiction? If so, that might cut down on the use of CC licenses severely.
