Privacy and Confidentiality Issues in General


The Bill of Rights, specifically the First Amendment
  • Freedom of Speech and the Press imply a right to hear and read.
  • There is no generalized right to privacy, BUT ...
  • "Chilling Effect" has been recognized as a barrier to First Amendment Freedoms.
  • Therefore privacy and confidentiality are essential.
