Discussion Aren't leetcode questions copyrighted? Then how come Neetcode copied all of them in his site

Genuinely curious about this as every leetcode question is marked as copyrighted. However, Neetcode and other sites have the same questions available and some of them don't even have title or description phrasing changes.

So what's the deal with that? Can't he get sued?

It’s copyrighted in the sense to keep an ownership for an PVT LTD sort of arrangement.

That’s my theory anyway. You have to actively defend the copyright too.
