the word "privacy" is not actually mentioned in the Constitution
It isn't mentioned at all, not once.
(1) Only once does it even say private. (The fifth amendment)(2) The Ninth Amendment reads: "The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people."
Nope No word exists in the US constitution.
The US Constitution doesn't explicitly mention the right to privacy, but it is implied by the language of the First, Third, Fourth, Ninth, and Fourteenth Amendments. For a more in-depth discussion of the right to privacy, see Related Questions, below.
Two amendments in the Bill of Rights imply a right to privacy. The Fourth Amendment protects citizens from "unreasonable search and seizure". But in recent years, the Tenth Amendment is often cited as the basis of a right to privacy. The Tenth Amendments states: "The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people." Some scholars and Constitutional experts believe that if there is no constitutional provision allowing an invasion of privacy by the government, then the people can claim power over their own privacy or the "right to be let alone." This belief has formed the basis in arguments in favor of the right to abortion, same-sex marriage and medical marijuana laws, among others.
The Right to protest, Freedom of Speech, Freedom of Religion are part of the First amendment to the Constitution. The right to privacy is part of the fourth and fifth amendments to the constitution. The racial, sexual, and opportunial equalities are technically granted in the Constitution, however many people believe otherwise, which is why we have further amendments addressing such issues.
There are no "zone of privacy" in the 9th amendment. The issues concerning privacy rights are covered in 4, 5, and 14 amendments.
The Grisold v. Connecticut (1965) case proved that the Founders of Constitution had intened for a right to privacy all along. Connecticut made a law that made it illegal to use any drug or article to prevent conception. The Court deemed this invalide for it is an invasion of privacy. The Constitution doesn't specifically grant Americans the right to privacy, however the Court discovered a right to privacy in this case. Amendments 3, 4, and 9 all hint at the idea of the right to privacy.
True
Under the Privacy Act, individuals have the right to request amendments of their records contained in a system of records.
Personal Privacy has to be respected because not only are we individuals with rights but its basically stated in the amendments 1, 3, 5. These amendments basically speak of our right in home, of religion, and of one as an individul.
True, but the 9th Amendment says that the rights listed in the constitution are not the only ones that the people have. The 9th amendment means that just because the authors of the constitution may have not mentioned a certain right in that document, this is not evidence that the right doesn't really exist. Strangely, the Supreme Court didn't use the 9th Amendment when it found a "privacy right" to abortion, or to marry someone of another race, or to buy birth control. I forget what part of the constitution they cited as being the source of this right to privacy.
