I do think you're wrong though. Rights have limits, even rights we can all pretty much agree aren't be violated regularly. When it's necessary to violate someone's rights, we normally have strict procedures in place for doing so, and legal remedies in case someone oversteps.
I think the issue with privacy is that the exceptions are too many, and the remedies too weak.
- zeynel1 16y ago--with privacy exceptions are too many - and remedies too weak-- well - thank you for putting so well what i was trying to say in my lengthy comment i interpret your insightful statement as saying that a human -body- has no privacy and no right to privacy -because- the entity who violates the privacy of a human body is the same entity who -defines- the exceptions --and-- the remedies human body has no right to -define- what human privacy is and there is only 1 entity who violates the privacy of human body - that entity may have different -names- but it is the same being the being who has the absolute right to violate the privacy of a human body is the --same-- entity who also -enforces- the -remedies- --and-- who owns your privacy -is- your master a slave has no privacy in other words the owner of your right to privacy tells you --i grant you privacy but -i- reserve the right to violate your privacy as i wish-- what kind of right to privacy is that which means that - that entity who violates the privacy of a human body has the freedom and right to violate the privacy of the human body - if that entity -owns- the right to privacy of the human body -then- human body -does not- own its own privacy might is right - and whoever has the right to -define- is the mightiest in the case of privacy - your right to privacy as a human being can only be violated by an entity who is not a human being - so a mother entering her daughters room without knocking - this is -not- the kind of violation of privacy we are talking about - in the airport your right to privacy is violated by an entity who is not human but a -bodyless- human or maybe - we -are- talking about the same -kind- of privacy as mother-daughter privacy - the mother enters her daughters room without knocking to show that she -the mother- can violate her -daughters- privacy and -therefore- she -the mother- is in charge for some unfortunate reason the authority -loves- to prove again and again that -she- is the authority -and- for some reason authority appears to be -she- the same goes with human body - the entity who owns the right to privacy of a human body must show -again and again- that -it- or that bodyless and -therefore- genderless entity who owns the human right of privacy - must humiliate the human body again and again by scanning the naked human -body- and violate the most sacred privacy of human body and prove that human body has no privacy - to prove that -it- is the owner of the human right of privacy
