		<description>Orin asks: &quot;Dan, do the lower court cases agree with this interpretation of what the right does, or is this more of a brooding omnipresence in the Solovian sky?&quot;

Yes, they in fact do.   

See Fraternal Order of Police, Lodge No. 5 v. City of Philadelphia, 812 F.2d 105 (3d Cir. 1987) (finding inadequate safeguards on questionnaire responses by police candidates and stating that &quot;[s]afeguards against disclosure of private material have been held to be adequate where there exists a statutory penalty for unauthorized disclosures,; when there exist security provisions to prevent mishandling of files coupled with an express regulatory policy prohibiting disclosure. . . .&quot;); US v. Westinghouse, 638 F.2d 570 (3d Cir. 1980) (setting forth balancing test to determine when disclosures are unwarranted). 

There are many more cases.  In my casebook, I excerpt quite a few, plus list cases from many different circuits that recognize the right.</description>

		<description>Dan writes: &quot;I believe that the constitutional right to information privacy exists, and it ensures that whenever the government collects personal information, it has a duty to avoid unwarranted disclosures.  This duty consists in avoiding the intentional disclosure of the information when there isn’t a compelling reason to do so.  It also consists in providing adequate data security.&quot;

Dan, do the lower court cases agree with this interpretation of what the right does, or is this more of a brooding omnipresence in the Solovian sky?</description>
