Unanimously.

I prefer to think of it as being right twice.

It's a good ruling, though there is still a huge difference of opinion within the unanimous ruling. Five of the justices ruled based on a narrow invasion-of-personal-propery view. They ignored (or dismissed) any personal privacy aspect. The remaining four justices ruled with a view toward wider personal-privacy implications. This split would seem to indicate how the court may swing when more pure privacy issues come before them.

That could go either way. It's pretty standard to make your ruling as narrow as possible lest you be accused of overstepping your bounds.

The other thread is for people who don't have anything to add. This thread is for insightful commentary.

I'll add some insightful commentary to your face.

I'm hurt you think I rate such a weak comeback.
