Taking the heads off the cold taps is one thing. But some places are *really* trying to make sure: I was in a (Melbourne) venue on Friday night that only had one tap running hot water, and that was headless in the men's after a certain opint in the night.
I had to go into the women's toilet to fill my bottle up with (hot) water. That was a bit rough, legal grey area or no. Surely there are sanitation regulations?
I can see all sides of this issue, and mostly I do buy water at the bar just because it tastes better (!!!).
Personally though, I'm in the camp that thinks profit is one thing, but hot water in the toilets is just goddamn rude. It's saying, "your mild discomfort, even if you don't use drugs, is less important to us than making more profit from drug users."
Taps in the toilets aren't just used by people wanting a drink , and frankly, washing your hands in hot, bacteria-friendly water is gross.
