Provisions

  1. Ownership of a token is recorded separately from copyright, license, publicity, moral, and platform rights.
  2. Rights statements report observed source metadata and are not expanded beyond that evidence.
  3. A live work record should identify its generator, library dependencies, external assets, controls, viewport expectations, audio behavior, and tested runtime where known.
  4. Official media and scripts may be checksummed without implying that AB5D has retained or may redistribute their bytes.
  5. A still image is a reference representation and must not be described as a complete substitute for live behavior unless the work is explicitly static.
  6. Preservation limitations and unverified behavior remain visible until a later observation resolves them.
