<p>Hello,</p>
<p>For me, it really depends on the work. I agree if the work
expresses opinions. But in such a case, the licence can well be
CC-BY-ND which NOT for someone like me (I am the leader of the
Belgian chapter of Creative Commons and lecture regularly on the
CC licenses).</p>
<p>For nearly any work that be used as research and teaching
material, I consider it really important that the work be under a
free CC licenses, and there are only 2 : CC-BY and CC-BY-SA.</p>
<p>For me, therefore, Open Access is as good as the license, that is
the rights that are granted to the readers. And if the work is not
free for reuse it can hardly be called OpenAccess . In French,
Open is often translated in a much better way "Libre" supporting
the philosophical case of freedom, much as free software (en) =
logiciel libre (fr) (now only, after 20 years) = open source, that
only transmit the economical benefit of openess . </p>
<p>For me OA should have been named "accès libre" (at least in
French) (this discussion has already taken place here if I
remember well) and reflect the fact that the reader is allowed to
do pretty much what he wants.</p>
<p>The risk that your are mentioning is quite difficult to see in
practice I suppose, because of the BY clause.</p>
<p>Best regards,</p>
<p>Nicolas<br>
