Saying "Well, you could also use our VPN as well" is more marketing. Of course they'll have to comply with legal requests for that too.
This is a political issue. What's missing is the legal oversight which prevents overreach. Demanding logs to catch a mass murderer is one thing. Demanding logs to catch someone who is being financially and politically irritating is on a completely different level and much harder to justify.
