While large companies and their lawyers will argue otherwise, slurping up all this code and ignoring the licenses it comes with is effectively stealing it.

@agersant@mastodon.gamedev.place @protowlf@mastodon.gamedev.place The MIT license grants the right to "deal in the Software without restriction", though, provided that "[t]he above copyright notice and this permission notice shall be included in all copies or substantial portions of the Software." Is that happening when you throw a lot of MIT-licensed code and their license documents in a blender and come out with a bunch of matrices? If the code is encoded in the matrices, the license probably is too.
