If the post does not include an explicit statement, check the poster's home node to see if they have made a blanket statement on the subject (as I, among others, have done). If there is no statement to be found, then assume that copyright is held by the author of the code. Asking permission of the author is the next "right" step.
Now, a post by Anonymous Monk carries no author identity, making this process impossible.
