    You are being paranoid.

    Assuming you’re using Github to publish your own free and open-source software, remember that this is one of the basic tenets of FOSS:

    The freedom to run the program as you wish, for any purpose

    Even purposes you don’t like or agree with.

    If you’re worried about megacorps stealing your code without giving you credit, just licence your code under the GPL or AGPL. They won’t touch it with a 10-foot pole.

      Well should I be worried about openAI touching the code then?

      With copyright infringement all over the place, I bet they have infringe more copylefts than they will ever admit.
