> Recital 32 suggests that (1) anyone who wants to link to the news has to have a separate, commercial license; and (2) news companies can't waive this right, even through Creative Commons licenses and other tools for granting blanket permission.

Unless they're enforcing across-the-board licenses with standard fees though, it's difficult for me to imagine how you would force a publisher not to enter into some kind of special agreement, so I don't know how extensive these kinds of restrictions can actually get in practice.
