Not just that. Laws can (and probably have been) written that require companies to gather data and to explicitly lie about it.

Maybe I'm dense or naive, but I don't think there's any precedent for that. A gag order is one thing (and there are certainly places for it), but forcing someone to lie would hopefully violate the First Amendment.
It's well know about.
