13. Agree with the idea, but not that the government should enact protections

because we took care of that in 1781 with the Constitution. The rights you are discussing are the privacy rights rising out of the amendments to the US Constitution. They apply to the federal government directly, and to the states through operation of the 14th amendment.

Otherwise I think you are right on the money. I think almost all DUers will agree with your post.
