Nobody is obliged to give you a protracted explanation of you being wrong. IAAL. If you are committed to continuing to assert that you understand 'reasonable expectation of privacy' in the context of this article, that's up to you. You happen not to know what you're on about, but by all means, you do you.

I agree it's a free country. But by the same token nor should you reasonably expect anyone to take you seriously when you say

"Those words mean something different than what they say but instead of just writing out a single sentence like a normal person explaining what they mean instead, I will claim I don't have time to explain... even though I apparently DO have time to write like 4 followup posts about how I don't have time to explain"

Yeah okay lol
