Of course, you don't have to agree when your rights are increased upon copyright law, only when they are decreased. The decree of rights is unilateral, you can only abide them or not at all. > Archivers and linkers don't create derivative works. Yes on the first case, not on the second. In the second case you make a work that is the direct combination of two works, without either of which nothing exists. Either you are allowed to combine thus creating a derived work or not at all. > Nothing is merged "in linking software." Of course not, in the domain of lies, mischiefs and circular self-references.
