I wonder if the argument is missing the point.
Much of what used to be private is now out in  public view.
Love letters in envelopes are hidden. Love letters in MySpace are public.
Are we entitled to the same rules of privacy as were relevant in the stamp
and envelope era when we are using open media?

Will the laws regarding privacy be subject to revision in the near future.

RIAA is filing lawsuits against kids who copy music.
Will this change the kids or change the laws??
