Privacy requires some censorship. For example, a law that makes it illegal to take certain photos lacks teeth without a corresponding law that restricts publishing them.

What's with all the "teeth" comments lately? who's pushing that agenda?

We enjoy great constitutional protection to publish, unless it's copyright violation or you're revealing the allied plan for the normandy invasion no court will rule against you.

There typically aren't criminal charges, but civil penalties for publishing private information do abound. Whether or not that constitutes censorship is a matter of semantics.

You must be unaware of what happens when photos of minors are published without parental consent.

What happens, exactly? In the U.S., AFAIK, there is no law preventing taking and publishing photos in the newspaper of minors or others in public spaces without prior consent.

You can Google it, but school districts across the country have created bans on publishing pictures of students and those bans are enforceable by law.
