We certainly don't want Emacs to lead people to submit to practices
like that.

If the released (and free) LanguageTool _program_ gives adequate
results, we could make Emacs support working with that.  But we should
take pains _not_ to support the kind of communication that that SaaSS
server offers.


                                  LanguageTool.org is very clear in using

That means they don't agree with our philosophy.  Given the facts
you've described, that is no surprise.  But we don't need to reject a
free program just because its developers disagree with our philosophy.
