Who cares if they're infringing copyright?
Microsoft bought the place that has a lot of our code and now is going to try and sell us a tool that will regurgitate it back on demand. The entire software industry is already largely based and advanced by the unpaid labor of open-source software project developers, GitHub as a popular open source ally could at least pretend to honor the gentleman's agreement of at least agreeing to respect the open-source origins of a ton of its stack.
If the tool was also open we probably wouldn't have nearly as big a problem, but I guess Microsoft has to recoup the cost of their completely unnecessary purchase.
