A non-aboriginal business has licensed the copyright on Australia's aboriginal flag, and are making copyright claims against aboriginal businesses

But certain things like a flag meant to symbolize a people it seems a bit to “big” for it to belong to just one person. And like all things that become a cultural thing, it then becomes fair game to be co-opted, remixed, and perverted.

Personally, I agree entirely.

However… I understand that acceptance of this particular flag is still precarious (officially it’s an official national flag, but in practice the establishment seem to begrudge it), so I can appreciate a desire to keep an eye on usage.
