Question

The licenses I know, including open source and the less restrictive ones like BSD, make it mandatory to:

Retain the copyright notice, and/or:
Indicate that the precise part of source code was written by the original author.
Let's say I want to share source code I've written and I want to grant all rights, including the right to:

Remove the copyright notice or substitute another one,
Sell the source code or use it in a commercial product with no restrictions,
Never indicate that this source code was written by me

Explanation / Answer
