It looks like the account where this repo was published was the one used by Google Workspace DevRel? (And that’s the team this guy worked on.)

That makes this quite a bit different situation than publishing the repo on a personal account.

> getting grilled by legal about why the Google logo and brand colors are on the Google Workspace GitHub code repositories.

The wording is very ambiguous, but to me it suggests the opposite. If legal was question why the logo was on the account profile picture, not just that specific repo's content, that would imply the entire account was unauthorized, right?

This relies on assuming legal's action made sense, when Justin is likely mentioning it specifically because it didn't make sense.

The Github account is linked to on https://developers.google.com/workspace ("Code Samples" near the bottom).

If that was the issue, it's not very hard to delete it either... Either nobody cares, or that repo is not as bad as for Google as it seems.
