I hope that the next Attorney General will remember what he should have learned in grade school: The US Constitution was intended to protect our rights, NOT grant them. Even though privacy is not explicitly mentioned in the Constitution (save for implicitly and partially in the Fourth Amendment), we still have the right to protect our personal information and thoughts.
