Re:Microsoft will assume liability for legal copyright risks... by gpderetta on Thursday September 07, 2023 @06:48PM (#37426712)
IANAL, but far as I understand, estoppel is purely a defense when being sued by whomever made the promise.

So it helps if MS sues you when you distribute copilot-generated code that infringes on MS copyrights, but if a third party sues you, you can't claim estoppel to compel MS to help you. You would need a contractual guarantee.
