Poll: Americans Value Privacy Rights

A majority of respondents to a UPI-Zogby International poll said the U.S. government shouldn't be allowed to suspend privacy laws to share terror information. The 5,932 U.S. residents who took part in the April 13-16 Zogby interactive poll were asked whether the government could suspend privacy laws to enable the sharing of counter-terror information that could include private data on U.S. citizens.
