Of course it's bad. Noone who put up their work as open source wants some huge company taking it and selling it to get even more competitive advantage and influence in the world. And that's without mentioning the people who put that into their license pretty much explicitly. Taking GPL code and getting away with it is a failure of our justice system, and that can't be made right with throwing pennies at developers.

In this case it seems obvious to me that the huge time savings for thousands of developers outweigh the fact that the original writers are offended.

A world with copiloted snippets seems like a better one to live in than a world without.
