The Linux Foundation has created one open-data licence framework to rule them all, allowing users to collaborate on data-driven projects.
Today at the Open Source Summit in Prague, executive director Jim Zemlin announced the Community Data License Agreement, which is designed for non-proprietary data.
The org says data producers can now share the goods "with greater clarity about what recipients may do with it".
One branch "puts terms in place to ensure that downstream recipients can use and modify that data, and are also required to share their changes", while the other does not oblige users to share those changes.
The idea is to accelerate machine learning in open source.

I thought they wanted to take my personal data and share it freely with anyone that wants it.
The difference between a slut and a whore is that Facebook and Google and AT&T and Verizon and T-Mobile at least beat you and charge for your services. You can't even be a slut in the sharing economy because you can't choose who to share personal data with. you're passed around like a disease.
a slut might have a friends list, but its mostly other people profiting off your behaviors.

You need to adjust your lenses, your focus is a bit out of whack.
