Yeah. Like, you can do all this without LLMs. "Oh, I didn't copy this open source repo with a restrictive license, I just found an fork that was identical except for having removed the license. So we used that."
That's not how licenses work, and the license holder can absolutely tell you to get bent and/or pony up.
