but keep in mind no license can protect you from misbehaviour. A license is worth nothing if you don't have the resources to fight in court
Agree. I've had this happen with my GPL sw. On a side note, I think github's copilot is a disservice to all developers in this regard as it effectively throws developers under the bus.
most of them weren't deliberate
as a software developer i know what MIT, GNU and BSL are but most people from the internet don't and they don't bother to look up
i'm pretty sure large companies wouldn't even touch copilot with a 10-foot pole
