why, what should have they done?

In the least, fight it more in court. Isn't that the entire point of the thing, to keep things looping around via lawyers? Maybe notify the user beforehand, as well.

In the most, not have hosted that data in the first place. No need to keep subscription data if you implement one-time lifetime plans, for example.

that can be done in questionable cases, but not all is like that. often the law is very clear about what do they need to comply with, isn't it?

I am not a lawyer but I doubt they are allowed to do that

as I said in my previous comment, they accept payments in crypto. but I think they also accept payments in cash over mail
