To put it another way, crimes are usually [0] only something the government can/must prosecute, victims don't get to choose. The media-popularized phrase "would you like to press charges" isn't asking for your permission, it's asking if you're willing you be helpful.

So HuggingFace's corporate opinion here shouldn't (normatively) matter very much.

[0] "Private right of action" with a civil trial comes close.
