Copyright and privacy law are two different animals.
Copyright law covers things that are expected to be published - i.e. creative works. We decide that authors get to control how and when they are published. Privacy law is different: the subject is information that is held in confidence and should not be published under any circumstance.
Fair use would circumvent the "copyright my nudes so I can DMCA them off Facebook" kind of action, but not, say, the GDPR. GDPR does not care about fair use, and its skeptical of TOS agreements.
