Bit risky with a company org if they decide it violates TOS does that just impact the offending repo, or the entire org?

Better to ask for forgiveness than permission.
Not the case with things like Google accounts. Probably not worth the risk for GitHub accounts either.
There are a lot of things where that adage doesn't work.

Risking losing an important account due to TOS violations is one.

Also, you don't see a lot of people in jail saying that.

The people not in jail are the ones who asked for forgiveness.
Unless you dick around in someone elses org and get them booted.
