segaboy81 writes: Jailbreak hacker @ronsoros found stolen, open-source code in voice.ai, a real-time voice synthesizer, but instead of complying with the open-source license, they are taking measures to shut him down. “After an extensive investigation into an installation of Voice.ai, it was found that the company had integrated code from Praat, a widely-used open-source speech analysis software, and libgcrypt, a cryptographic library, in its proprietary software without releasing the source code of its software or providing proper attribution,” reports Neowin. “In his blog, undeleted, @ronsoros details the steps that were taken to uncover the violations. […] @ronsoros reached out to the company to let them know they were in violation of two opensource licenses and was promptly booted from the community’s Discord server.” Read more of this story at Slashdot.
