Must be why instead of law enforcement it was plex who was shutting down hundreds of paid servers. Seems like way too many people wanted to sell their legal risk for some 10$/month per user. I'm sure they'd still be happy to do it if not for plex's stubborness.
Plex could be held liable as a vicarious enabler of infringement. Your suggestion that they turn a blind eye would endanger their very existence. Of course they are going to capitulate. It's a wonder they still exist as it is.
