Lots of example of Copilot regurgitating code verbatim: Quake's fast inverse sqrt (GPL), copyright headers or the entire GPL license, someone's "about me" page... This should be enough to convince anyone that, even when they get it to stop proposing "obviously stolen" code (e.g. rename variables a bit, propose code without names in it), it is still all stolen code.
