I'm not familiar with what's involved with running a hosting firm at all, but part of the reason why any firm is reluctant to censor is just the resources needed to police all of that. Social media platforms by nature have shared content by users, so word gets around quickly if people have a problem with something. With hosting, sites are walled off from each other. Combine that with the profit motive and hosting firms aren't likely to shut down paying customers unless there's a huge stink (like what happened with My Posting Career).
