I like the ideas you've given me, and I'll see if I can't find a way to rephrase what I've got so far to include the bill of rights. I actually did refer to it a few times when writing this up.

On the issue of privacy, I view any attempt to regulate privacy as ultimately doomed - the only way (I believe) that we can protect our privacy is to not have any at all, but to demand the same from all others. For a more in-depth discussion, I highly recommend [link|http://www.davidbrin.com/tschp1.html|The Transparent Society] by David Brin.
