Not at all.
If they can get the data to their server to store it, they could just as easily not do that and instead serve it from your local device by proxy through their server.
It’s t he exact same difficulty as what they are already doing. Arguably easier since you don’t have to manage file storage in the cloud.

It’s not a technical limitation. Nobody sees the need to build it that way though.
