text: **Licenses and Public Domain Tools**
  
  The first CC License was created in 2002. Today, we boast**six CC Licenses**and 
  two public domain tools, setting a global standard for sharing. 
  
  **We’ve estimated that over 2.5 billion pieces of content**
  **were CC Licensed by the end of 2023.**
  
  Our legal and technology staff 
  continued to make key 
  infrastructure updates and 
  manage daily maintenance to 
  ensure these Licenses work for 
  everyone.
