Our Constitution does not equal worldwide law and that is what we are really talking about here

They were under British law before the Declaration of Independence (and it was vague until the war concluded).  So they 
did not have that right under the current law in their jurisdiction.  They were in fact criminals at the time.  I don’t 
think that was right but it was the fact.

You are way off base in your argument here because I am not disputing that you have the right to publish whatever you 
want on the Internet.  Go ahead and put up any web site you like.  I am just saying that you do NOT have the right to 
privacy when broadcasting information in a public forum.   No broadcast media is private by definition.
