Even in America freedom comes with certain rights and responsibilities. One of those responsibilities would be to abide by the laws of your country. If a creator wants to give out free items, for whatever reason, and to put restrictions on it's use then, I think, that is their right. I am extremely grateful to those like Jim, et al, who put no restrictions on use of their free stuff, but if they were to put restrictions on them then that's their right. I think most people who are upset about this are the ones who have already downloaded items only to find that they are for non-commercial use. Anyone posting should specify on the notes page and those downloading should read it first.
