If that's the case (what OP mentioned), I think it's still the responsibility of who made those effing laws. You cannot ask a corporation to break the law to protect your privacy. But you can definitely ask your representative to protect it
It's not an order from the president, they could easily say no and fight it.
If they have anything to gain from it financially, which they probably don't in this case, and are even being kind enough to let you know what they're removing.
Corporations aren't nice to be nice, it usually helps their bottom line when they are.
That's kind of my point. They are being dicks, why do people feel the need to defend and excuse their behavior.
