Public domain
/ˈpʌblɪk dəʊˈmeɪn/ (n.)

WIthout wishing to rip off the Cambridge Dictionary — but hang it, it is in the public domain,

“if information is in the public domain, it is available for everyone to see or know about”

That is the colloquial use. There is a technical, narrower view, relating to the law of copyright: public domain consists of all the creative work to which no exclusive intellectual property rights apply, because they have expired, been forfeited, waived, or for some other reason no longer apply.

This is a great cue for those of take pleasure from such things, to raise an objection.
