A trade group for the adult entertainment industry will appear at the Supreme Court on Wednesday in its challenge to a Texas law that requires pornography sites to verify the age of their users before providing access – for example, by requiring a government-issued identification. The law applies to any website whose content is one-third or more “harmful to minors” – a definition that the challengers say would include most sexually suggestive content, from nude modeling to romance novels and R-rated movies.

Unless it's explicitly exempted in policy, companies are held to their own privacy policy federally. You should actually read what I write rom.

We know they can be released because of the unamerican acts commission specifically requesting membership rolls and the subsequent supreme court case saying they can be disclosed.

There are federal rules of disclosure as to 501c3 and charitable organizations but pornhub and in fact most businesses are not 501c3 nor charitable.
