WorkOS
The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
What? I'm saying that companies already have to protect against their developers violating licenses. Any junior developer can already copy patent-encumbered code off Github, strip the headers, and add it to your company's codebase. They don't need Copilot to make this easier, it's already trivial to do. And yet, companies aren't getting sued. Ergo, it's a minor problem.
Even more, I could create my own terms of licencing, like the licence Everyone But Richard Stallman which is a valid licence, that allows free use and distribution of the software by everyone with the exception of Richard Stallman specifically, and make it to Copilot.
I don't know, I think copilot is going to destroy the bustling community of https://github.com/jezen/is-thirteen.
