I know copying from Stackoverflow is like a running gag for programmers at this point, but how does this extension deal with the fact that snippets on Stackoverflow do have a license (https://stackoverflow.com/help/licensing)? It seems it should add attribution automatically given it is copying results verbatim.

Unrelated to that, I’m concerned that people use Stackoverflow this way. It’s not the code on its own but the context and explanation that usually help me figure out my problem.

Thanks for pointing out the licensing, we'll need to check it out.
