Only because people raised such a stink and actually threatened their bottom line with people boycotting them. That's literally the only fucking reason. Anyone who thinks it's actually because of silly things like "not wanting to be associated with such a disgusting, festering cesspool of a site" is naïve. It's the exact same situation as they had with 8chan.
