Here is an exercise for you. The next time someone demands that you
disclose private information because "the law requires it", ask them
for a citation to the statute or regulation that requires it. Ninety-
eight percent of them time they will be unable to respond. Tell them
that you will answer when they can give you the citation (and after
you have had a chance to check it).
In a large number of cases, there is no such requirement. Companies
often claim that "the law requires" that you do something that they
simply want you to do. And even if the request is made in good faith,
it is often the case that someone has misinterpreted a legal
requirement somewhere.
