This feels legal, but icky.
Like technically it's legal for multi billion dollar companies to turn MIT projects into hosted services.
They can do this without compensating the original devs, they can close source their additions, etc.
Just feels icky.
Co Pilot also feels icky, back when it was free, it looked like a neat project. For 10$ a month, one would hope the Microsoft overlords would offer some compensation.
Let's say you write a code snippet that Copilot copies a few million times. Maybe Microsoft can give you a bit of cash.
Then again, it's probably buried in GitHub's TOS that they can use tools like CoPilot to extract from anything you upload.
