Enterprises of even modest size take it very seriously. They’ll be juicy targets to go after. It’s everything between startups to midsize companies where this is not clearly defined. Just ask the VCs who do due diligence. Almost everyone of them will audit your licenses before they invest. One of the things they ask for is the list of libraries you use and their licenses.

As a open-source-license expert dev, in the past I've been able to offer a lot of value to my employer by assembling that list in such a way that the buyer could have high confidence in our audit of dependencies.

This doesn't protect anybody against illegal copy-pasta by ignorant/irresponsible devs, though.
