When I post code samples on Stack Overflow I want them to be freely useable, under the MIT license. However I don't want nor require attribution. In other words, I am perfectly fine with someone using my code on SO for any purpose what so ever.

This attribution required nonsense is annoying. I freely share my knowledge, anyone can use it, I would expect the same from everyone else that posts their code.




So you don't want the MIT license, but something like CC0.
