IANAL but having read the ToS, I think the author is failing to distinguish between "Your Content" and "Content You Uploaded".
GH's ToS don't prevent Bob uploading content Bob doesn't own. The ToS does require Bob to grant GH a licence to use any content uploaded that Bob owns. It doesn't prevent Bob uploading others' content nor does it ask Bob to grant GH licence to it.

If you're reading the ToS yourself, the keyword to look out for is "Your Content", which is defined in their Definitions section as such:
> “User-Generated Content” is Content, written or otherwise, created or uploaded by our Users.
> "Your Content" is Content that you create or own.
The licence grant to GH is only on "Your Content", not on "User-Generated Content" (i.e. content you upload, which may be yours or someone else's)
