@dalias imagine if someone working for a company did this but to proprietary code. My worry from the jump has been that it becomes a murky area where we have expansive definition of fair use for me (big corp.), narrow definition for thee (oss dev).

@thomasjwebb @dalias I mean, the Windows source code is available.

What's to stop me from strapping on a joker mask, backing up a sewage tanker in front of Copilot's maw and cackling "exactly this but GPL!" before opening the valves and sprinting away?

What I'm saying is, a world where there's one rule for commercial code and another one for you is exactly what's going to happen.
