> You’ve always been responsible for what you merge to main.

I've never merged anything with an unclear copyright to main, let alone if I positively suspected that it had been plagiarized.

Every place I've been employed was nearly paranoid about copyright, with rules in place about never copying and pasting anything copyrighted into the company code base.

All the major open source distros and projects, likewise.

There are some bad apples out there, like, oh, Sam Altman, who wants massive plagiarism to be fair use.

So, au contraire, you can shove your contemptuous blog up your ass, buddy.
