They're not protesting "something". They're protesting a law which they believe has a good chance of passing, and which will likely put them out of business if passed.
Now, should they interfere with your paid service because of that? I don't know. But it's not cut and dried either way. The best would be for the law to go away and for your service to continue without interruption. But it doesn't look like that's possible at the moment. You have to choose one, and neither one is something they "should" do.
