Yes, but this has nothing in particular to do with the AGPL and everything to do with copyright laws. There is no licence except public domain/CC-0 that allows BigCorp to incorporate other people's code without any obligations whatsoever (attribution, at least). Copyright laws forbid such incorporation by default.
