The problem is, we don't know what Copilot is going to do. Sometimes it reproduces entire files in verbatim. That is certainly a copyright violation. Sometimes it produces whole functions which are more or less taking verbatim from a copyrighted file. The user cannot see the level to which they are "verbatim" and there are also no clear legal guidelines to what is considered violating copyrights and what not.
