Many people paid to host their code at Github to only then have it sold back to them and others in the form of Copilot.

IMO that's very anti-developer.



That is not anti-developer, but definitely anti-opensource. As a developer I dont really care my code is used to make copilot better and sold in that way.


You should care if your code's license is being violated by being reproduced without attribution. Undermining OSS's licenses can ultimately weaken it, and the cynic in me suspects MS is fully aware of this.
