Elsewhere in the country, the struggle goes on to define privacy in a digital world. Thousands of Facebook users attempted to "copyright" their content via a generic status that was full of legalese and not at all enforceable. (Per Facebook's user agreement, you already own your content, but Facebook has the right to use it, so no "copyright" is possible). On the governmental side, the Senate Judicial Committee is considering proposed revisions to the Electronic Communications Privacy Act, and the U.S. Supreme Court has denied cert to a case challenging the Illinois law that prohibits individuals from recording police officers on the job.
