Privacy law expert comments on Bork’s legacy
Robert Bork was a major figure in the history of
American law, and of the Supreme Court, says Neil Richards, JD,
professor of law at Washington University in St. Louis and former law
clerk for Supreme Court Chief Justice William H. Rehnquist. “There is a great irony to Bork’s death this week, a
day after the House of Representatives voted to relax the privacy
protections in the so-called “Bork Bill,” the federal law that protects
the privacy of our video records.”
