My personal belief is yes. Legal talks to management after the case concludes, tells them this is the new reality, and management tells product to make the change.
At no time is management obligated or even remotely motivated to tell end users the real reason for making the change, because users believing that the platform is just a greedy corporation is better than them realizing that the platform will just roll over if the police presents them with a subpoena to snitch on a user.
