You could argue that since it's publicly available and this repo only archives it that... I don't know man Copyright law is confusing.

I think you can get some kind of exemption for archival purposes. I know that the Internet Archive has one. But I also know that ultimately Microsoft is responsible for the data hosted on Github, and Microsoft's interest is to not even risk getting sued.
