The only statues giving any kind of "Right to privacy" that have any weight at all are full of holes. For the most part a right to privacy has been EXTRACTED from them, usually without much basis.
Even Brandeis has his reservations (International News Service v. Associated Press) Again, the right to privacy is not constitutionally reserved, and is almost entirely a construction of common law.
As I recall, Dark, INS v. AP is copyright/First Amendment case, not a privacy case. (International News Service was cribbing from AP stories.) What does Brandeis say in this case that seems to be a reservation about privacy rights? --Mike
