Will Github indemnify users against potential copyright lawsuits related to the code it regurgitates?

  I came here to post exactly this. My team has budgeted for CoPilot, but we’ll only pull the trigger if copyright liability is resolved. I think it’s hilarious Microsoft is doing this, of all companies; it’s like they’ve forgotten that big businesses are run by risk-averse general counsel offices (often for good reason). I can’t even imagine the hilarity that would ensue if I went to my GC right now to ask permission with so much in limbo; it’d be suicide by conference call.

  It doesn't regurgitate any code unless you bait it really hard. That's not how you use it. The only code it normally regurgitates is your own when it tries to autocomplete your boilerplate.
