There have been many improvements in making documentation more inclusive across the IT industry which shouldn't be scoffed at. The first that comes to mind is changing "master" and "slave" to "primary" and "secondary" (or "replica" etc.) because references to slavery is inconsiderate to many.
I don't think pile-ons are productive, but I think inclusive language and thinking is important.
In my country that would be a civil offence, not criminal.
I'd recommend at least taking some precautions (e.g. use TLS or Wireguard, firewall if possible).
