Sure, but if I need to trust someone, I'd rather trust a company whose reputation is staked on not giving out my data. A VPN provider that easily bows to authorities is a VPN provider that will lose a massive portion of their user base. Some server farm probably profits very little from VPN servers, so if some government (or even some IP lawyer) knocks on their door, then they won't take the risk.
