Ironically, Google does not include the rel tag in their declaration of their structured data guide as Creative Commons… https://developers.google.com/search/docs/guides/intro-structured-data .. it came up in search and i thought it would be a model for how to declare something creative-commons in a google-friendly way!

Basically you just copy-paste code output by the chooser which will give you the `rel=“license”`` markup:

Clayton found a meta tag for ‘rights’ but doesn’t think anyone’s really using it or looking at it.
