You can't guarantee that there won't be a lawyer logging in, writing down your IP
Survivorship bias is about surviving/passing a filter or selection process that's actually happened, not one that could theoretically happen one day.
It happened, that P2P users have been sued because lawyers were getting into the share and wrote down the IPs of the other user.
The statement to which you replied wasn't about p2p users; it was about Soulseek. His perspective isn't a matter of his bias, but rather the complete lack of lawsuits against Soulseek users.
You should change your scope then and stop looking only at the platform but at the technology, because it is the point of breach.
