The so-called '''right to privacy''' is usually used as a euphemism for [[abortion]], and even taxpayer-funded abortion, and has little to do with real rights of privacy as protected by the [[Fourth Amendment]]. Real rights of privacy are [[United States Constitution|Constitutional]] [[unalienable right]]s in the [[United States]] that prevents [[federal]] and [[state government]] officials from violating rights possessed by individuals. The growth of the [[Internet]] and of very large databases containing detailed personal information has made [[privacy]] a major issue in the information age.

Conservative [[Robert Bork]] argued that ''Griswold'' did not derive the right to privacy from some pre-existing right or from [[natural law]], but merely created a new right to privacy with no foundation in the Constitution or [[Bill of Rights]].<ref>See Robert Bork, ''The Tempting of America: The Political Seduction of the Law'' (1990)</ref> Roberts reply is that the right is indeed grounded in the [[Fourteenth Amendment]].

==Statutory Law==
Various US statutory laws directly or incidentally affect privacy rights, notably the The Electronic Communications Privacy Act of 1986 (ECPA),<ref>https://it.ojp.gov/PrivacyLiberty/authorities/statutes/1285</ref> the Gramm–Leach–Bliley Act (GLBA),<ref>https://www.ftc.gov/tips-advice/business-center/privacy-and-security/gramm-leach-bliley-act</ref><ref name=glba_ltr>http://www.skoozeme.com/privacy/glba_letter.html</ref> also known as the Financial Services Modernization Act of 1999, The Fair Credit Reporting Act (FRCA),<ref>https://www.nolo.com/legal-encyclopedia/what-is-the-fair-credit-reporting-act.html</ref> and HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996).<ref>https://searchhealthit.techtarget.com/definition/HIPAA</ref>
==Privacy is obsolete==
Technology leaders assert that the very notion of data privacy in 2021 A.D. is [[obsolete]] and even harmful. The reader is invited to examine [[Citizendium]] where the editors of that wiki are encouraged to have a username of their legal name, just as any professional [[reporter]] of almost any sort of information would do.<ref>https://www.nfinit.com/is-data-privacy-old-fashioned-concept/</ref><ref>https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2018/06/18/why-do-we-care-so-much-about-privacy</ref><ref>https://amp.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2015/nov/07/privacy-seems-20th-century-aberration-but-worth-mourning</ref><ref>https://cdn.harvardlawreview.org/wp-content/uploads/pdfs/vol126_cohen.pdf</ref><ref>https://harvardlawreview.org/2013/05/what-privacy-is-for/</ref><ref>http://views.washingtonpost.com/leadership/panelists/2010/03/privacy-is-old-fashioned.html</ref><ref>https://www.quora.com/Is-the-concept-of-privacy-outdated-and-irrelevant</ref>
