We're talking large scale commercial repurposing of source code with worldwide redistribution here. Not some project you whipped up in 5 minutes to learn from, or automate some minor annoying task.

Unlicensed source code - the default - is still protected by copyright law. If it's hosted and served from a different jurisdiction where no exception exists for training data models.

Then there are also licenses that explicitly prohibit commercial usage to consider.

What it comes down to, as it always does, is that a small group of (practically) untouchable people are making money by abusing and thereby irreparably damaging the trust and good will of the collective.

It's a complex topic eh
