Whenever there is no hardware or software license declared for a product, that means that the license is by default proprietary.

See https://choosealicense.com/no-permission/

Thus, when somebody claims that they are open source but does not document their license in writing, they are not legally open source. The proper response in such cases is "Open Source or gitfo"
