switching this because it reads weird - meaning is to refer to personal information shared in a user profile.

rewording

* Update github-sexually-obscene-content.md

* Update github-community-forum-code-of-conduct.md

I made initial changes, but I'm at a loss for what to do on the what is not allowed section. My thinking is to cut that section and replace it with a short blurb linking out to our acceptable use policies and leave the additional language that was specific to community forum.

cc/ @vollmera if you have thoughts.

* add unlawfully before shares to clarify that we don’t intend for this restriction to apply where a legal exemption, such as for the purpose of interoperability, may apply

* help clarify that activities authorized under bug programs are not considered “unauthorized”

* add comma for readability

Policy

Legal

You may not misrepresent your identity or your association with another person or organization. This includes doing any of the following in a way that misleads or deceives others:

Copying another user's avatar or other personal profile information
Posting content under another user's email address
Using a deceptively similar username, organization name, or other namespace
Otherwise posing as another individual or organization

Impersonation is a form of harassment and violation of this policy may lead to loss of access to your account.

Please note, having a username similar to another is not necessarily impersonation. GitHub will take context into account. For example, as in cases involving claims of misinformation or disinformation, we generally allow parody and satire that is in line with our Acceptable Use Polices.
