Wow dreto, like always you show how little you know and how narrowminded you are. Every single line of sourcecode, as it gets written, is protected by that idividuals intellectual property, whether or not shipping with a respective license. Its absolutely irrelevant if you know how to use it or to know what it does, it doesnt change the fact of being someone elses code.
So, yea, part of it is indeed my code. ;)

Yet again, you are laughable. There is an inherent difference between copying and reimplementing.
If you REIMPLEMENT a system of whatever kind you are mostly safe UNLESS the respective system is protected via a patent. In that case you would violate law.
If you COPY source code, even if you do small changes to it, its directly violating copyright AND intellectual property claims. Unless there is a concrete license to allow you copying AND usage AND editting, you will violate law. This aswell applies if there is no license available at all.
To enlighten you, code can be reused as long as there is a license which directly states that you are allowed to do so. For everything else you could INDEED be sued.
