      @blenderdumbass @h4ckernews No, that isn't fixed.

      The project in question has no license, as a copy of the GPLv3 in the root doesn't legally mean anything - the license headers on top of each nontrivial license file, or at least an unambiguous statement as to the license in the project README is missing.

      The developer makes many errors too - copyright infringement is not theft.

      The Apache 2.0 is indeed compatible with the GPLv3-{only,or-later}, although nothing can be relicensed without permission from the copyright holder(s) regardless.
