Right to privacy and the blogger?

hello to all,








I am a student and i am doing a research regarding the right to privacy











and bloggers.








so i am asking for your help and your opinion and would like to post a


few questions.








first, i guess none of you believe a right to privacy even exist for


the blogger. if any one object i would like to hear


secondly, think about it, yes, as a blogger, you published your blog on











the net, but can someone/or a reoprter quote you or criticize you on a


public or well know newspaper?








moreover, if a blogger concider himself a journalist, is he obligated


to the right to privacy of the person he writes about?








anyother question and answer will be more than welcome








thank you
Right to privacy and the blogger?
In my opinion if you put something out in public space you should expect it to be public. Also since it is not copyrighted it is not protected in the fact that someone can come along and use what you say in another public forum without giving you/blogger credit.


If the blogger has any common sense/civility he should let his friends know that what they say could end up on his blog just like a journalist should be letting his quotes know that they will end up in print/ public view.
