Yes. Also CC is complicated in EU. A creator can not "give up" their copy right. Work can not put to "Public Domain" as creator.

Is that for the whole EU? I understood it was country specific, for example France doesn’t let you give up your copyright, but other EU members do
Makes it even worse. Basically it hugely depends. For example Finland allows letting go of commercial exploitation rights and even make binding statement on that. But still there always remains right for them to be informed if copies are being published.
Not to even mention moral rights on how such work can or can not be changed if it would be disparaging for example...
Yep, it’s a mess. I’m sure it’s also something pretty complicated if you take in account Asian countries, and look at distinctions between US states. IP laws is a real mess.
