Discuss the implications of Griswold v. Connecticut for the Court's interpretation of privacy rights.

What will be an ideal response?

Until the landmark case of Griswold v. Connecticut, the Supreme Court had never legally codified the right to privacy. The Griswold decision argued that the right to privacy was implied in other liberties in the Bill of Rights. This case, which centered around the state's ability to regulate private couples' access to birth control, established a zone of privacy around every person in the United States, and found that government could not pass laws that encroached upon this zone.
