Global Poker uses a similar argument for not allowing HUDS or HH. It's a "Social" casino. Tracking any of that data on your own is against TOS.

I think we'll likely never know whose involved or the full extent. The only wise decision is to drain online accounts and go play live.
Even if the websites are outed in full; Nothing of benefit will occur. Nobody will get their losses back, No meaningful ban will occur on the accounts, No site will take any responsibility or make any move that resembles holding themselves accountable. They'll probably even blame the players; maybe even mock them on forums, or make bot accounts to promote their website.
(IIRC, Global Poker CEO did mock a high roller during the recent GTOWizard scandal with project baby. Called him a 'gold coin greg' )
I recently asked for my hand history from GP, and GP said 'sure, just provide (personal) information'. I provided the info; they then messaged me and said 'unfortunately we can't provide the hand history'.
What's interesting is that when I first started playing on GP, I talked in chat to a guy who was essentially telling me the premise of an 'eco-room' but in a more conspiracy minded manner. He said something akin to 'They keep the fish happy; by taxing the winning players' (not exact quote). Very interesting that the 'riggies' are so close to proven concepts of these operations.
