First things first, if your repository does not include a license file, I'm not sure how important the github icon is. Otherwise the default is public domain? Which still entitles you to something (at least in the eu afaik).
Other than that, if youve got a bit of money to spare, have a lawyer send a letter or something, just to have some form of precedent set.
- iab 5y agoIf your code does not contain an explicit license, it is by default “All rights reserved”, I.e not open-source or free. For op, they are obviously in violation of the MIT open-source requirements, but unfortunately the ramifications for this are usually minimal.
