I am happy for others to share and build on or adapt my work but as it is originally my work I would want to be acknowledged for my work and as I put in the work I wouldn’t want anyone to make money off work that I had created without first asking for my permission.
The blog posts on this site are my thoughts (ramblings) but they are my intellectual property so I would want that to be protected in some way but also shareable. Creative Commons seems to make the legality of share information much clearer and is trusted by a great deal of reputable and well known organisations including OU.
Finally, CC seems to simplify what can be done and focuses less on what can’t be done which has to be positive in a digital environment, such as the OU, that facilitates and encourages sharing and collaboration.
