Privacy as a Matter of Public Health
State and federal action in privacy law is surging. But much of the new activity is more of the same old: an emphasis on individual choice and narrowly confined rights coupled with silence as to the dispersed, corrosive effects to social welfare that can be brought about by privacy-invasive technology. Privacy law needs a drastic and imaginative shift, and we propose one: understanding privacy as a matter of public health.
