You have some sort of source to back this up? If it's just your understanding, it makes little sense. Copyright is automatic unless one voluntarily places it in the public domain. The Mises Institute could not have copyrighted this if Kinsella had waived his copyright by making it public domain. What you probably mean is that they placed it under Creative Commons without his permission, but likewise that doesn't make sense and if he wanted it in the public domain instead then his intentions would trump theirs. So the only thing that makes any sense would be that he wanted it copyrighted but not released under CC, which would mean he favored stronger enforcement of his copyright than the LvMI, which would contradict his position from everything I've ever read of his.

Thanks, TIL that IP law sucks more than I realized. What is, in your opinion, the least restrictive way to publish written content? I'm familiar with most of the licenses for computer code, being a software developer, but as someone interested in potentially moving towards writing I'd be interested in your opinion.
