This does the following:

Of note - we may also wish to include stronger language that prohibits people from forking and modifying the textbook at all unless they have approval. If anybody forks the textbook on GitHub and makes any change (even if it's just a typo to make a pull-request), they are in violation of the ND clause in the license.

cc @ericvd-ucb and @alexnakagawa in case they have thoughts.

side-note: we should similarly remove language in our other materials that calls the Data 8 textbook an "open source" textbook.

Thanks so much for clarifying and editing these in. I'll look out for language calling the Data 8 textbook an "open source" one, specifically in the technical infrastructure guide.
