That's not a great take. Not only do they understand the internet and the request seems to be formulated in a way it can be restricted to Germany, they also know the same pressure worked in other cases. For example Twitter knows which of their users are Nazi sympathisers - they're currently marked as such so that they're not displayed in Germany where it's illegal.
In other countries it seems it's more profitable to accept them...
