McCoy Smith dixit:

>Because if that’s true, MIT and BSD are also not licenses.

Russell Nelson dixit:

>Perhaps we could suggest that the Unlicense contain a statement saying
>"In France, the concept of moral rights prohibits me from giving up my
>copyright in this work. Therefore, in France, this license gives you
>co-ownership of the copyright."

It’s not just France. Look at how CC0 did it, they got that right.
