Imagine you left Epic Games. Does that mean you get to fork Fortnite and make a competitor even if you wrote the code? No. If you did so, they would sue you into oblivion. This is how the world works.

Of course they would. Rightly so, but I don’t see how this applies in CopperheadOS’s case. I can’t remember what the licence was, but I do remember CopperheadOS used to have a lot more code opened up on GitHub, has this all been taken down? Why?

The original repositories were moved to github.com/AndroidHardeni and then github.com/GrapheneOS during the renaming of the project. Copperhead cloned all of the repositories and uploaded their forks to a new organization. GrapheneOS is the original project. You can verify this.

These are the original repositories for the AOSP-based CopperheadOS which was renamed to Android Hardening and then GrapheneOS. They aren't the repositories from the very beginning, since I initially based it on CyanogenMod before I knew better. These still predate Copperhead.
