This is of course nonsense, but interestingly enough also a FAQ entry of Sheepit:
> Who owns the copyright of the images generated?
> SheepIt Render Farm does not lay any claim to generated images, it only acts as a tool to provide compute power to owners of the project. The owner of the project will have all rights reserved to them; As long as the claimant is the true rights holder of all assets used, and complies with governed free use laws, as well as potential rights holder permissions.
Otherwise I guess GitHub owns the copyright on all software artifacts build on their CI systems. Obviously not how copyright works, like at all.
"GitHub owns the copyright on all software artifacts build on their CI systems"
Good question, someone should get the IP lawyers to go over the EULA of both git and the login email identity service providers. However, I would assume for most FOSS licensed projects it is likely a moot argument. Microsoft probably wouldn't do anything evil...
Hard to say for sure... One would assume github implicitly agrees to the FOSS project license by hosting the source, and thus is still in compliance when compiling the binary in the CI pipeline.
