Given that Claude is attributed to 19M+ commits on GitHub, it will be interesting to see where this ends up. Specifically on copyright, it will be interesting to see if any DMCA takedown notices are filed, including popular projects such as OpenClaw, GSD, Gas Town, Vibium, and others.

This argument sounds like "Well, it's too big to fail now, so it's legal for them. For all you smaller peons, it's still illegal".

		That's not the intention. The intention is: 1. The code generated should be available to use. Some languages are simple enough there is an obvious way to do it. Many companies have developer programs with staff producing code intended to be used in the form of open source SDKs, example code, and tutorials. 2. If on the off chance, there is code that shouldn't be there, people should use DMCA. Anthropic, GitHub, and others support this. 3. At the macro level, it's hard to know know where this is going, so we should look to bellwether apps with more attention for guidance.
