The editorial board of the Ninth Amendment at www.waronnothing.blogspot.com finds it most unfortunate that the Obama Administration despite President Obama's campaign promises to the contrary having firmly established a horrific record of greatly extending and expanding the NSA and other Executive Branch agencies' gross abuses of all Americans' privacy and other rights by among other things universal surveillance and data mining largely begun under the Bush administration should extend those broken promises to consumer privacy rights proposing such abysmal apparently toothless or even counter-productive legislation apparently immediately criticized by nearly all notable consumer rights groups. It is most unfortunate that President Obama appears bound to leave such a sorry legacy in the vital area of Americans' privacy and related Constitutional rights in an era when the sustained attacks against these rights by the Government and corporations domestically threaten the very survival of the core fabric of the Constitution and thus further diminish the chances of the very survival of the United States as it has become so distracted sacrificing such essential liberties to protect itself from "national security" threats claimed not only from abroad but increasingly allegedly from within.
