Do Corporations Have a Right to Privacy?
This week, the U.S. Supreme Court will hear arguments about whether or not corporations have the same rights to “personal privacy” that individuals do.
This is a good analysis of the case.
I signed on to a “friend of the court” brief put together by EPIC, arguing that they do not.
More background here. And an editorial from The Washington Post.
EDITED TO ADD (1/25): Here’s a much more entertaining take on the issue.

Corporations were invented by the supreme corrupt, for their friends in the 19the century railroads and other big industries. They exist so guys like lloyd blankenfeld can do whatever they want and if people get killed or land gets polluted, the corporations can go blithly on and no person can be held responsible.
Called anonymous societies, and other things in europe, the whole point is to avoid criminal responsiblity for crimes and torts.
will the five black robed traitors who installed the callow bush boy as president against the popular vote, do anything except what their masters want.
NOt a chance. Corporations are winning all our rights and taking them away from us.
