I'm used to thinking of courts as arbiters of the Federal Government's relationship with the people; what is its role when the people watch the people?
Line: 25 to 25
 I may be being too optimistic, but that's how it would work in my mind. Courts would be making decisions closer to the initial offense than waiting for a number of violations over a significant time before they began looking into a situation.

Thanks for your responses. To clarify, Lizzie, I refer to when private entities surveil upon other private entities, e.g. the corporate data miners we consistently consider.

My opinion is that the "right to privacy" should be considered more emphatically as a normative right, rather than one that simply adheres to people's relationships with their government. That is, assuming it can really be said to exist in our current jurisprudence.
