> They did by accessing and copying the code. By default, copying is disallowed because of copyright. Your license provides them a right to copy the code, perhaps within certain restrictions. However, sometimes copying is allowed, such as fair use (I covered this in another comment I sent you). This would allow them to copy the code regardless of the license. > Same as a human cloning a repository and using it's content or someone accessing a website with Terms of Use. I've covered the cloning/copying part already, but "I agree to this ToS by continuing to browse this webpage" is called a clickwrap agreement. Its enforceability is dubious. I think the LinkedIn case showed that it only applied if HiQ actually explicitly agreed to it by signing up.
