Which are worth nothing in the case of a legal battle.
Who do you think the instance admins are? These are normal people, techies who know about running a server. But without a legal department.
They’ll not be eager to even risk a court case.
That’s totally not a point. When the admin of an instance has no interest in even getting close to something that might get them into court, it’s totally fine that they take measures.
Whether you like that or not is just as irrelevant as whether another admin was in court already.
