Copilot is to license violations (esp of copyleft licenses) what cryptocurrency mixers are for money laundering.
My employer (IMHO smartly) forbids use of LLMs in company IP and company laptops, etc. Many others I'm sure are doing the same, and many others will follow.

Nobody affirmatively says “yes, my goal is to violate copyright law, and Copilot is the best tool I’ve found”. But it doesn’t seem impossible to me that the value of Copilot comes partially from the fact that it can copy paste code from copyrighted repositories in ways which would be illegal for you or I to do. I’m not sure it’s proven yet but I wouldn’t be shocked if it is in the future.
