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.

You also get the situation where you're not protected from dishonest people, but honest people get discouraged from doing anything with your software because of the same clauses that the dishonest people just ignore anyway.

i've had possibly hundreds of GPL violations done to my repositories

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
