Warning! Creative Commons does not equal free culture.

"NonCommercial" ironically is proprietary, because it maintains the biggest part of a copyright monopoly, commercial rights.

"NoDerivs" is proprietary because it disallows modifications, a central part of free culture.

Use a free culture license!

For software, check out the FSF's license recommendations guide, and for other cultural works use one of the following licenses.
