IIUC, no one is objecting to password requirements -- almost all such websites already have them, and it usually already takes a credit card to get in. It's rather the onerous recordkeeping requirements for all photos -- including those behind password barriers -- that would force sites to shut down (and especially non commercial community sites where people meet up).
At least that what they say:
