> I apologize, I wrote what I was thinking down wrong. They would vote against Prop 13, which is bad. Where in the article does it show students advocating any position on Prop 13? You twisting the narrative to fit your agenda. > You are getting hung up on really modern and broad meanings of things like privacy and consent and whatever... Privacy is not a new concept and your response here is revealing.

> You twisting the narrative to fit your agenda. The students don't advocate any position on Prop 13. It's a popular law, and I'm a betting man, I would bet that the average Californian supports it, so the average student-now-adult does, and indeed, maybe that's why it was so hard for Jones to make a persuasive case. Unambitious students want low taxes more than they wanted better educations - sounds stupid, because it is. Anyway, my agenda is only the surprise at the students being the bad guys. I think their privacy got validated for some sense of privacy. I just don't think it matters, at all. I think they are wrong to care about it so much, and the particular way and circumstance and sense their violation occurred, keeps me protected for my privacy in all the ways it matters. They are totally orthogonal. Tough cookie.

I appreciate your admission that you made a series of unfounded assumptions and then used that to judge people you don't know.
