What happened in the past was lazy developers cutting corners and effetely copying code and thinking that by switching a few variable names and the order of some operators they would get around the problem.
?? Historically it’s been an issue where you need to prove you didn’t do it, because otherwise the companies would bury you in legal fees trying to defend yourself. You’re like…trying to argue an alternate universe to how this normally plays out.
That’s…not a legal excuse.
In fact that’;s an open and shut end to a project if you’re caught doing it.
As long as you don’t copy code…
It’s enough that you have read the code before implementing an alternative to get into legal trouble.
Good luck proving that.
It’s happened in the past and is easier than you might think.
