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.

Because they aren't private.

Name alone is not in itself pii but membership specifically is not private unless it's in their privacy policy.

Because that's not how the law works bud.

Awesome, point to one that says membership rolls are protected. You can't find a law and you can't be original, why am I not surprised.

I'm still waiting for you to show me this law that says sharing personally-identifiable information without consent is completely fine.

Will you ever provide it? Yes or no?

That. Isn't. How. Laws. Work.

Start there and work your way up I guess.
