This is a clear privacy invasion. I cannot see the administration justifying this in Federal court. I think give it a try in federal court. I think that we will win.

Well, “The Great Connecticut Land Grab” was a clear case of a government taking privately owned land from its owners even though it was not for pubic use; and “The Supremes” voted to let them get away with it.

The words “for public use” are actually in the 5th Amendment, and were included as a clear and hard limit on governments’ powers of imminent domain. Yet five supreme court justices ignored those words.

I don't think the word “privacy” is even in the Constitution at all. Further, I do not think “privacy” can be an issue when discussing things that a person willingly posts to a web-site or web-sites which can, will and are intended to be, viewed by millions of people.
