Are they in the position to do that?

What about the authors?

The ACM sent around a nice query to members which made it clear that they were going to do it even if 100% of the members said "No, don't do that".

I suppose they could be sued.

Don't you grant ACM a right to distribute your work when publishing? So doesn't ACM already have the right to grant access to AI?
