Yeah, love it or hate it, that's why Hexbear has been able to exist for so long. The only people capable of shutting down this website are people on the admin list, and even then I seriously doubt that all of them have the power needed to shut down the website. Unless interpol literally commit arson, there's no shutting down Hexbear. Same thing goes for the other shitty instances in the fediverse.

Edit: Not calling Hexbear shit. Calling .world shit.
