Answer: D. Public domain
Explanation:
Hi, the term Public domain is applied to works of authorship that are ineligible for protection by copyright laws, because the copyright has expired or it was never copyrighted in the first place.
Public domain may vary in different countries and jurisdictions, for example; a media piece may be protected by copyright in one specific country, and be public domain in other countries.
