54de9d0e86 Slightly increase accuracy of trademark info:
- use not directly forbideen by certain licenses, rather rights not granted
- CC0-1.0 is one of those licenses with explicit non-grant

15ebedb726 Rename "Patent Grant" to "Patent Use"
Per the discussion in #168, the consumers of the softare are granted the right to use patents. So "Patent Use" makes more sense from a consumer perspective than "Patent Grant".

6e2de93780 Remove untenable assertion from goals
Whether in civil rights, human rights, land rights, "intellectual
property" rights (as in this case) or any other rights, the act of
deciding who ought to be granted which rights in which circumstances is
not only inherently political, it is the very essence of politics.
Therefore, it is preposterous for choosealicense.com, if it is to be
meaningful, to aim to be "Politics Free".

This edit takes into account feedback from @tekkub on my initial pull
request.

1a8461cc19 Correct mistakes/omissions in the README.
The README says the license files are Markdown but they are not.
The text of the license should be wrapped to a 78 character width.

8c269c57ba Missing question mark on question in intro
- Sentence for "list of licenses common for specific communities"
  reads a little easier as:

   "list of licenses common to specific communities"

- Markdown with uppercase first letter, as a type
- Removed "I counted" as the repo voice otherwise
  doesn't come from a single person

5291123ad4 It's about licenses: let's het them right!
"Creative Commons 3.0 license" is unclear. The link is correct though.
