Are you stupid?
In addition to that, anyone using anything or distributing anything that was released in illegal manner will be liable to prosecution and suit as well. This is not the way to do it.

Just look at the Windows 2000 source code release that happened some years back. If you even looked at it, you would be not be suitable for touching a lot of code, unable to contribute to ReactOS, etc.
