I wonder whether AI might be a useful tool for making that easier.
If you have evidence then you can get courts to order disclosure or examination of code.

I am pretty sure there is a significant amount of proprietary code that has FOSS code in it, against license terms (especially GPL and similar).
A lot of proprietary code is now been written using AIs trained on FOSS code, and companies are open about this. It might open an interesting can of worms.
- physicsguy 1y ago> Unless its leaked Given the number of people on HN that say they're using for e.g. Cursor, OpenAI, etc. through work, and my experience with workplaces saying 'absolutely you can't use it', I suspect a large amount is being leaked.
- graemep 1y agoI thought most of these did not use users context and input for training?
