I am not a lawyer. If I were thinking of selling something that is available free online, some things I would be thinking about are
-Does the State of California hold copyright for the handbook? I wouldn't bet against it.
-Most use of online resources rely on an implied license. If someone puts something on a well-known website, and suggests that I read it, then there is probably an implied copyright license.
-Does an implied copyright license to use something myself also allow me to sell it to others? I wouldn't bet on it. |
