This was the same mentality that brought copyleft to the masses in 1984. While you may not care, there are others who do care about the sanctity of license agreements. This is an argument where staying silent means you accept this approach. Of the millions of open source projects, a large portion of the contributors ARE speaking up because they don't find this to be acceptable. I personally think copilot is the future and all this discussion is doing is going to bring a license usage feature to copilot (e.g. i want only or i do not want GPL code in my copilot suggestions) Please continue using GitHub as you were, but maybe consider acting on your words and either removing or changing licenses within your code that does not represent your ideals. Nothing is preventing you from releasing code into the public domain, so do that! |

Is this true? Is there really a large portion of contributors speaking up against this? I got the opposite sense, that it was a very small portion of contributors speaking up against this but I don't have any evidence one way or the other.
