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.

    No it doesn’t. It states they have to give it to the courts.

    Courts wanting access to information to do their job != “Sure, go and publish personally-identifiable information about your customers”

    You’ve still been unable to show that companies can go around publishing information about specific users without their consent.

      It started they aren’t private.

      It’s not illegal guy.

      I have. You want me to have you a law that tells you what you can do, those don’t exist at all. No law says what you can do. The fact you can’t find a single law that states it is illegal is the best evidence that it is not in fact illegal. Surely if it’s so correct you are beyond reproach that we must simply take it on your word you could easily provide evidence to back your position… You haven’t because you can’t.

      Grow up.
