CC Signals

FYI (and comments?)

"CC signals will allow dataset holders to signal their preferences for how their content can be reused by machines based on a set of limited but meaningful options shaped in the public interest."
"The Declaring Party applies CC signals to a set of standard categories that encompass machine use, from general categories to more specific categories, such as Automated Processing, AI Training, Generative AI Training, AI Use, and Search. "
"CC signals modify the IETF AI Preferences opt-out with an exception that encourages reciprocity. To simply opt out, you do not need CC signals. "
