No. They are a private enterprise that does ages checks. It is totally fine for consenting adults to go in a room and watch porn together.

Age checks does not change the fact they are public setting. Contrary to your point, sometimes it's okay:

>>Under no circumstances is it ok to show porn in a public setting.

It's not public. It's private. Let's be super annoying about it and argue semantics. Really helps the discussion.
