ShotCode And Paragin Launch PHONifier

I read the story on PP.

This is a little confusing. Phonifier says they are using a Creative Commons License. If I understand correctly, the Creative Commons License is for non-profit and non-commercial use. Yet, ShotCode (OP3) clearly is a for profit business. Are they miss-using the Creative Commons License? I also see in the pwc ShotCode interview that Scanbuy says, OP3 is a partner representing Scanbuy’s technology in its region, focusing on integration of our technology in Fortune 1000 and mobile operators. Does OP3 need Scanbuy anymore? Are NeoMedia's patents being blatantly violated? Does this mean, as an individual, I can use the software for free to scan a ShoteCode on an advertisement, connect to a business website, and buy tickets for a concert bypassing all copyrights and patents? Or, does a for-profit company using ShotCodes have to pay a licensing fee to cross the bridge?
