    They can and did, they did it to one streamer and it caused a big fuss.

    Edit: It was because the streamer used it to criticize someone and was rather nasty about it too.

    That was also the straw that broke the camel's back, but not in regards to parsers. The person they were being nasty to had been on one of the Japanese player black-lists for awhile and that wasn't the first time people were apparently nasty towards them. And especially not the first time people have dragged someone through the mud on stream either. They ended up making that Streamer an example, and rightly so, but it was well in line with their bottom line in regards to parsers. What was odd about it is that it was one of the first bans they handed out for saying something on a stream as before the harassment had to happen in game in order to get their attention. However given how much of a problem those black lists happen to be it's really not surprising it happened.
