@Moon I think there was a typo in your post, or i misunderstood...
Isnt this:
> human decency recognizes the absolute right of people to have private conversations without government eavesdropping.
An example of this
> rights organizations making pragmatic appeals against internet surveillance
Wait, what exactly do people use "women won't be able to keep abortion plans secret from the government" to aruge?
It probably isnt the best of arguments, but I dont think its as bad as you do.. like #1 I agree on (and partly why its a bad argument).. #2 obviously using that particular case is questionable at best, and the mother was in the wrong. But I think saying it has nothing to do with abortion is not entierly fair. It is related to abortion int he sense that it never would have happened if abortions were legal. So clearly there is some relationship there. #3 is half valid... like year they do, but no need to make it easier.
Yea and thats why i agree, its a poorly framed argument even if it may hint at some valid truths in there while it does.
