They violated ToS. I get what you are saying but the scale can be massive and while i also don't agree with Plex's course of action at all, they pushed back in the face of tos breaches.
Plex shouldn't have access to your self-hosted services in the first place. My Jellyfin can't be shut off by the Jellyfin project maintainer. My LibreOffice can't be uninstalled from my computer by The Document Foundation. At least... they shouldn't ever be expected to.
Anyone (still) running Plex chose to use a service that relies on a 3rd party. They agreed to their ToS. They agreed to the service model.
I run Plex and am fully aware at anytime they could F me in the A and I'd have no one to blame but myself. I don't agree with their actions at all, in any way but it's their software and they can do what they want with it.
