Search tools are a thing. Grep, Google, Github, etc.

But yes, exactly, you never know if a snippet came from another project or not, so let's not assume it did without some convincing evidence.

It has been shown that github copilot does copy paste.

The fact that you tried it a couple of times (or 10 or 20) means absolutely nothing.

1 copyright infringement is enough for a lawsuit.
