1. My right is the Right to Privacy.
2. What it means to exercise this right is the right of a group or an individual to isolate themselves or information about themselves and reveal this information at their own will. Their is three main types of privacy physical, informational, and organizational. Physical privacy includes preventing unwelcome searching of your home and privacy to your belongings. Informational privacy includes sharing data about one's self such as Financial, Internet, Medical, Sexual, and Poltical Privacy. The last main type of privacy is organizational which protects companies from revealing information to other organizations or individuals. Privacy can be seen as security and anonomity from the outside world.
3. The limitations that exist on privacy are the right for the government to obtain a warrant to take action against an individual or individuals if they are considered harmful or carrying ilegal weaponry or items and considered "violent". Limitations includes the placement of electronic survelliance such as camera's in public places, but not to invade one's privacy but to ensure the security of everyone.
4. These limitations exist on privacy because although people have the right to their belongings, property, information and such if they are suspected criminals such as carrying belongings that could potentially harm another individual, having information that is a plot for a crime, or possessing ilegal drugs an action must be taken against them. Stated by the 4th ammendment, it does require an issue of a warrant to invade anothers privacy and this warrant is specific to the place to be searched and what they are looking for. Although the right of privacy is very important there is limitations on this for the security of other individuals.
5. If I had to give up the right of privacy what I would want in return is the right of security and economic prosperity. The right of privacy is a big concept in a person's life and to give it up would require a big commitment. So to give up privacy I would still want some kind of security to protect against crimes, but I would also want to become wealthy as a result of such a trade.
6. My privacy right exists because it protects a person against unwarranted publicity. It gives people the right to live without having their name, picture, or stature or that of a relative, made public against his or her will. It is necessary for the security and anonymity of a person.
