They don't care. As long as their bills are payed they will host anything that won't get them in legal trouble.

They shouldn't care. Their job is not to control the internet. It's to provide routing and content delivery.

Responding to legal takedown notices is as far as they should go, and in a better system, would be as far as they're legally allowed to go.

So why are they still servicing 4chan if 4chan has a bunch of illegal content on it?

Same reason why they serve Lemmy instances despite illegal content on Lemmy: section 230 of the DMCA
