By setting that up, you take on the liability for it. The defendant is whoever set it up. No different from "if I roll a car down a hill and it hits something at the bottom, how can you hold the car liable?"

That's not how ToS work though. ToS are contracts. If you don't sign the contract nobody can sue you for violating it.

That's the difference between criminal and civil justice. You don't need to sign a law for it to bind you, but for contracts you do.

But terms of service are contracts which you sign by agreeing.
Courts have looked somewhat favorably on "I didn't read that" defenses, but accepting the agreement is a legal contract between you and the service provider.
My point is that you don't have to accept anything.
