We didn't give it away for free without limitations: we carefully drafted licenses to attach to our code to establish legal boundaries on what we considered acceptable; my code, for example, is under GPL, which says "I am OK with you using the products of my labor under the requirement that you will then let me use the product of your labor"... hell: almost every bit of open source code has at minimum "I am OK with you using the products of my labor as long as you are at least willing to give me credit somewhere", a minimal limitation that Copilot doesn't honor (and prevents its users from honoring): Copilot is essentially a giant code launderer designed to strip away licenses from effort that was only contingently given to the community.
