Thinking about the #copyright status of generated code and text, and having learned about how photographs were deemed eligible for copyright (despite the human not having actually created the image), I'm very curious about #software --- if it is copyrighted, does that mean the binary / executable is copyrighted? The literal 1s and 0s? No human made that string of numbers; a compiler did.
