As I've already stated, the big problem here is wholesale copying and
reproduction without attribution. Every data publisher has to deal
with this
problem, at some point, when crafting a data oriented business model.
Every data publisher that aggregates or collects data from other
sources certainly needs to understand -- for their own workflow --
where data originates.
Not just for their own workflow. They have to attribute the data
sources in a form discernible to user agents (and other consumers)
further up the value chain.
This unveils a new need, i.e., the need for clearly specifying the
complete value chain and having trustful provenance information.
This would enable new sorts of business, with proportional compensation
for contributors in the value chain etc. (of course when data generates
profit at the end of its value chain)....
