Public Domain Software

Public domain software refers to software that is not owned by anyone and is free for anyone to use, modify, and distribute without any restrictions. This means that anyone can access the source code, make changes, or use it in their own projects without needing permission or paying fees. Because it is in the public domain, it contributes to a collaborative environment where developers can share improvements and innovations. Examples include classic software or older technologies that have been released into the public domain, promoting open access and encouraging creativity in software development.
