Allow me to interject on a slightly off-topic issue here.

Where exactly were all these people clamoring for privacy and anonimity when Tiger Woods' personal life was falling to pieces, or when Arnold Schwarzenegger's affair hit the airwaves? Even superstars and celebrities have their personal right to privacy, right?

Point is, yes, it's important to remember that people need privacy in an age where you can practically see someone else's life at the same time as they see it themselves, but let's not wrap ourselves in a double standard here. If there's a privacy issue, let the verdict apply to all relevant cases.

Back to the original topic, Benjamin Franklin once said, "He who would sacrifice liberty for safety deserves neither liberty nor safety."
