Justice Antonin Scalia on “his own” privacy
This may sound ridiculous to a blogger/technophiliac/contractor who has his entire life well documented in easily accessible public and government databases, but privacy is important. I believe we should have a say so in how private we want our lives to be. Of course, certain sensitive data should definitely be automatically classified and encrypted. For example, I don’t believe that the government should pry into what books we’ve checked out at the Library. Or what we’ve bought at the store.
Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia’s has been pretty lax with other people privacy. Since he determines our nation’s laws his comments and intensions on such matters are very important. The silly thing about all this is that he doesn’t agree with HIS privacy being exploited.
Professor Reindenberg of Fordham University challenged his students to find all public information on Scalia. Than this appearently pissed him off.
