I think it's important to bring up the face that llama.cpp has an MIT license[0]. Notably, the MIT license "permits reuse within proprietary software, provided that all copies of the software or its substantial portions include a copy of the terms of the MIT License and also a copyright notice.[1]"

You'll find that Ollama is also distributed under an MIT license[2]. It's fine to disagree with their priorities and lack of transparency. But trying to argue how they use code from other repositories that permit such a thing is tilting at windmills, IMHO.
