Waive moral rights
Moral rights protect the reputation of an author by ensuring that they are credited for their work and that their work is not altered without their permission. However, moral rights can be waived, which means that an author can choose to give up these rights. There are many reasons why an author might choose to waive their moral rights, such as if they are working on a project with someone else and they want to give the other person more control over the final product.
