Not that I relish defending these devils, but let me just advocate for the notion that these are not public officials exactly and this was a private (albeit weirdo to the max) shindig.

Do they not deserve any privacy even if they are scum. I am sure many of us can relate to the many assaults on freedom and civil rights that have occurred in recent years. If this kind of "journalism" is acceptable, doesn't it seem to justify the kinds of abuses we find objectionable when it is the government or corporations that intrude on our privacy.

Just a thought.

Do we really need to spy on these individuals to know the nature of these wall street titans who have been shafting the vast majority of our citizens for decades.
