I think you're conflating the role of a host and the role of a OSS license.
As with most hosts, the issue of liability rests on the owner. I couldn't upload 50gb of pirated movies to github and cry "github save me, I used you and now I need you to protect me."
Your software license dictates your liability to users of your code.
GitHub is saying we're just a host, and we defer to the software liscensors on how their code should be used
