Beware of these youtubers, they steal your work

i am totally blank right now, can you please help me choose the right license for my aia.

i wanted my aia to be open source and i like to have a credit link to the original source file, or any link i prefer.

Thank you for the help

You could put the license inside your aia with all the restrictions and wishes you want before they can use it. Be aware of the license you choose. It can conflict with your wishes. You also could not use a license but just put your wishes inside the aia. Here are some examples.

@Peter maybe unlist this so those people don’t see this?

Not at the moment, the discussion about ownership or respect for others work is not so bad.

India is not alone in this. We also saw the same problem with users from Nepal and other Asian countries. And indeed, most of the time it are teenagers but not always.

There is little you can do about them. If you put an aia somewhere you have to be prepared that users will take them as their own even if you put a license in them. I put only the things online that are public domain, so anybody can do with them as they like. In your post you said that a link back is appreciated. So they may choose to do that but are not obligated to do it.

so in that case for my future update for the browser project i have to change the text and add terms about how to use aia, so it wont happen again. :thinking:

Yes, and you can maybe delete some parts so to not to deliver a complete product.

I think this would be the best license for you:

https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/

While we recommend against using a CC license on software itself, CC licenses may be used for software documentation, as well as for separate artistic elements such as game art or music.

That’s why I don’t share my AIA files. Maybe you can remove AIA link, and you can add your e-mail address or something for requesting AIA.

By making this, only serious users will send mail to you. Because I know, most of these YouTube channels won’t contact with you. You can understand them with typing and others. Then you can give AIA them safely.

do i have to register or i just use this link and display on my app.

You can just use the link. Maybe add the license to your aia as in the example so users don’t “miss it by mistake”.
