Real talk - how are FOSS folks comfortable at *all* with genAI and vibe coding? I thought we cared about things like where the code we use comes from and what the licensing for that code is? Haven't we been fighting this fight for decades to ensure that the intent of the creators of each bit of code we used is followed?

It's hard not to see vibe coding as anything but a direct threat to FOSS.
