TechCrunch(@TechCrunch):Insurance tech startup Corgi is in the midst of a fresh controversy, with Papermark, maker of open source data room software, accusing Corgi of stealing its software and passing it off as its own. Papermark's co-founder has gone so far as to call Corgi’s new product copyright and license infringing, and “fraud,” posting side-by-side examples of identical language being used in both products. Corgi's co-founder has pushed back on the claim, though with an admission vibe coding may have caused some replication.
