Yeah, if this is used as precisence then all open source software can be done dirty the same way. It’s a dangerous legal precedent. Also, the slop machine stole code from many devs ignoring all licenses to create the slop.
Its unsafe code which would do anything. I don’t suggest running it under any circumstance either.
Fuck man I’m so happy for this specific instance, fuck adobe, but I have to hate it.
What would be cool, but won’t happen, is if this kinda just forced out an essential “mit license for everything” wild west situation. It won’t, corps will fuck ot, but would be cool
With regards to this specific project, I think the best case scenario would be a bunch of developers taking the code and using it as a starting point, going through it with a fine-toothed comb and re-writing however much needs to be re-written. There’s never been a viable competitor to Adobe’s suite, and if this results in that, then we can at least applaud the outcome if not the methodology.

that would be 100% then, as its clearly impossible to be a clean room development.

Sure, and if the momentum and publicity this has generated is the catalyst that gets people to do it, then great. Good outcome in the end.
