I don’t think the ToS approach would be invalidated here via your Safe Harbor fork theory.

The ToS could state something like “you give us a worldwide perpetual right to use your content in any way we want including granting this right to whom we designate”

You still own your content but by having an account you agree to the ToS that lets them do what they want.

They just host it and are safe.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
