I wonder what kind of support there would be for an anonymity amendment to the constitution, stating that the federal government has no right to collect any information of any kind on citizens without their express written consent.

As public and private databases accumulate, the potential for abuse is only going to increase. Shouldn't the government step in now to protect citizens?

I'm for stopping data collecting whether it be public or private other than that necessary to complete
a transaction and not be allowed to be stored in a database.

As far as i'm concerned it should be illegal to send direct mail advertising or do telemarketing. Of course I despise all advertising or have a salesman try to sell me anything and I can't think of one thing that i've ever bought because of an advertisment.
