NOTICE: MORAL RIGHTS APPLY IN ALL DEPICTIONS HOMELESS HOUSELESS ETCETERA

What are moral rights, and how could I exercise them to prevent uses of my work that I don’t like?

In addition to the right of licensors to request removal of their name from a work when used in a derivative or collective they don't like, copyright laws in most jurisdictions around the world (with the notable exception of the US except in very limited circumstances) grant creators “moral rights” which may provide some redress if a derivative work represents a “derogatory treatment” of the licensor's work. Moral rights give an original author the right to object to “derogatory treatment” of their work; “derogatory treatment” is typically defined as “distortion or mutilation” of the work or treatment that is “prejudicial to the honor, or reputation of the author.” Creative Commons licenses (with the exception of Canada) do not affect any moral rights licensors may have. This means that if you have moral rights as an original author of a work, you may be able to take action against a creator who is using your work in a way you find objectionable. DO NOT DISRESPECT THE SUBJECT OF THIS PHOTO IN ANY MANNER. This remains consistent with Wikipedia licensing, albeit raising the bar on GOOD FAITH.
