Worry is something you do when you fear potential negative outcomes. His is more like falling out of a plane. You dont have to worry about the outcome because the conclusion is forgone.

The ToS already explicitly state that you do not own the content, and now you also have no receipt or proof of ownership even of the license itself. They dont have to worry about the future of media ownership, because this is the present media ownership.
