Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John C. Domino examines the origins and development of the right to privacy in Texas, beginning at a time when the state’s courts had not yet recognized the common law tort doctrines and state constitutional provisions that protect privacy, and culminating with the adoption of a robust right in groundbreaking cases. The author argues that contrary to the common perception that the right to privacy instantly sprang forth from U.S. Supreme Court cases such as Griswold v. Connecticut, Texas privacy law evolved incrementally and has never extended to matters concerning reproduction, abortion, and sexuality. Privacy in Texas can best be understood as the right to be “let alone,” in the parlance of Warren and Brandeis’s famous 1890 Harvard Law Review article, and not “privacy as autonomy.” The day-to-day lives of individuals in their homes, schools, and businesses in Texas are affected far more by state court rulings and statutes than by the decisions of federal courts. Further, the state’s statutory data and consumer privacy protections are among the most innovative in the nation. Yet, at the same time, the right to privacy in the state has significant limitations and fails to protect many Texans from government intrusions in the area of reproductive health and sexual intimacy.

Book excerpt: Recent improvements in communications technology have contributed to the erosion of personal privacy and caused substantial public concern. This report examines privacy policy and privacy issues in Texas, and makes recommendations to the Texas Legislature's Privacy Task Force. The study consists of three major parts. The first is a sample of the opinions of Texas citizens regarding threats to their privacy rights and their perspectives on the source of these threats. The second focuses on the implementation of federal and state privacy statutes in three large state agencies?the Texas Department of Public Safety, the Texas Department of Insurance, and the Texas Department of Health. The third part examines the experience of Florida and California, which are among the staes with the strongest privacy protections in the United States.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Who controls how one’s identity is used by others? This legal question, centuries old, demands greater scrutiny in the Internet age. Jennifer Rothman uses the right of publicity—a little-known law, often wielded by celebrities—to answer that question, not just for the famous but for everyone. In challenging the conventional story of the right of publicity’s emergence, development, and justifications, Rothman shows how it transformed people into intellectual property, leading to a bizarre world in which you can lose ownership of your own identity. This shift and the right’s subsequent expansion undermine individual liberty and privacy, restrict free speech, and suppress artistic works. The Right of Publicity traces the right’s origins back to the emergence of the right of privacy in the late 1800s. The central impetus for the adoption of privacy laws was to protect people from “wrongful publicity.” This privacy-based protection was not limited to anonymous private citizens but applied to famous actors, athletes, and politicians. Beginning in the 1950s, the right transformed into a fully transferable intellectual property right, generating a host of legal disputes, from control of dead celebrities like Prince, to the use of student athletes’ images by the NCAA, to lawsuits by users of Facebook and victims of revenge porn. The right of publicity has lost its way. Rothman proposes returning the right to its origins and in the process reclaiming privacy for a public world.

Book excerpt: "Privacy: The Lost Right is an authoritative overview of privacy in today's intrusive world. By analyzing the history and context of modern common law, tort, statutory and constitutional protections for the individual, Jon L. Mills exposes the complex web of laws and policies that fail to provide privacy protection. Identifying specific violations against privacy rights, such as identity theft, tabloid journalism, closed-circuit television, blogs, and Right to Die, he also provides a comprehensive assessment of privacy and legal remedies in the United States. Mills uses his experience as a former policy maker formulating Florida's constitutional privacy provisions and as an attorney in celebrity privacy cases to provide the leader with an understanding of the increasing intrusions in privacy rights, the possible harm, and available protections."--BOOK JACKET.

This compelling resource reviews the constitutional roots of the right to privacy, from the Fourth Amendment's protection against unreasonable searches to the Fourteenth Amendment's guarantee of personal liberty. The court cases presented show how privacy rights apply in nearly every area of our lives--at school, at work, in our homes, in our personal communications, in our doctor's offices, and in our relationships. They also demonstrate how privacy rights have evolved in a high-tech, complex world.
