This is the second time in less than a year something similar has happened.

Previously, a different YC company (Pear AI) copied Continue, changed the licenses, and "launched".

I wonder if Pear AI is dead or pivoted, their open source repos have not been updated since May.

Probably just went closed source.

They went pear-shaped.

Maybe a kind of hall of shame is needed, where these companies are listed, and perhaps a link to a history of how the issue was dealt with.

HN seems to be fine with that (!).

My open source project was relicensed by a YC company [license updated]
