I have come across large chunks (200+ lines) of a former employer's proprietary source code on StackOverflow a couple times. It was always from the same team/functional area, so it may have been tacitly accepted by the immediate management. Or, more likely, the team valued fixing code as fast as possible over actually thinking about what you are doing.
Basically, if there are developers willing to dump proprietary source on SO, there are developers willing to dump the whole codebase into ChatGPT.
