Right of Privacy

1. Right of Privacy

2. You could excersise this right by encrypting security cameras, or other devices. Making a computer private for only you.

3. There are limitations to this law, such as the taxation law.

4. These limits like these because not everything a person does is meant to be private.

5. I would trade the right of privacy for the freedom of speech. Speech and Privacy are very important.

6. The right to privacy exists to give people more security. It could be security in their room, or anywhere else.

Michael Hennigan. His background is in financial management and he is a B.Comm and M.Econ.SC graduate of University College Cork. This article is basically saying that the ice caps in Greenland are meting at an accelerating rate. I believe the source.

Source 3-http://www.commondreams.org/headlines06/0811-06.htm
founded in 1997 by political activists Craig Brown and his late wife, Lina Newhouser. The article is basically saying that the ice caps are melting at a very fast rate. I believe the site and the fact.
