If I decide to self-publish a book what happens to the copyright? Is there a way to prevent others from claiming copyrights for a book published autonomously? Are there OS licenses specifically tuned for books?

Making income from open licensing is the only ethical option, though.

  • Breaking your back doing hard days work

  • Enterprising. Selling a product,trade, or service to people. Perhaps your an great artist or got some clothes to sell off

Not ethical
