privacy
Let an agent explain privacy, relay legal frameworks, dimensions and debates from law, ethics and technology sources with positions attributed, describe the named concepts and flag the loosely filed alias, route data breach and stalking situations to appropriate help, and distinguish privacy from secrecy, confidentiality, anonymity, security and data protection as a legal regime.
Research draft, second pass
A second pass drafted this model: the structure a model of this thing needs, and what is known about it in the world. The line under this one says how the second half was obtained - researched against sources, or recalled without web access, in which case nothing here was read anywhere and every claim is a lead to verify. Unreviewed either way.

Purpose and description
Let an agent explain privacy, relay legal frameworks, dimensions and debates from law, ethics and technology sources with positions attributed, describe the named concepts and flag the loosely filed alias, route data breach and stalking situations to appropriate help, and distinguish privacy from secrecy, confidentiality, anonymity, security and data protection as a legal regime.
The ability of individuals or groups to control information about themselves and to be free from unwanted intrusion, surveillance or exposure, recognised as a right in Article 12 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, Article 8 of the European Convention on Human Rights and data protection laws such as the GDPR, and influentially framed by Warren and Brandeis in 1890 as the right to be let alone; concepts the registry aliases name include mental privacy and neuroprivacy, concerning brain data and neurotechnology, as in Chile s 2021 constitutional amendment on neurorights, practical obscurity, the idea that scattered public records deserve protection when compiled, collective privacy of groups and geo-privacy of location data, while the kiss cam, a stadium entertainment practice, is an example of a privacy issue rather than a kind and appears loosely filed. Privacy is balanced against security, free expression and transparency, and positions are attributed.
What it is for: Protecting personal autonomy and information.
It can be explain concepts and dimensions; relay legal frameworks; describe named concepts; present debates with attribution.
