A poll is irrelevant as IIS is not a free for all or even a democracy accountable to the will of the membership (who enjoy the benefits of IIS but carry none of the risks).
It is a free service provided by the goodwill and hard work of the site management and moderators. As a former moderator I have a personal insight into this and i can understand why some risks are not worth carrying, let alone the horribly increased workload managing such controversial issues can create.
Dennis says it well below.

If I paid fees for this service and IIS had paid professionals with access to funded legal advice, then I might feel differently.
