I voted this one:

Requiring all men to be circumsized because it demonstrably reduces the chance of contracting HIV

I wouldn't consider anything else on the list to be an excessive invasion of privacy.

Requiring you to take your shoes off at the airport because al Qaeda might be lurking in your sneakers :lol: :lol: it really made me laugh. But I don't think it's ano invasion of privacy. If you're travelling you should know better than wear socks with holes in it :P

The one about requiring circumcision is just... weird. Is this really being considered to be put into law? I know that most of the others are or are being considered being put in practice.

None of the others is too excessive for me, the airport stuff is security and I don't mind taking my shoes off or have my baggage scanned, after all, I have nothing to hide from customs or security.

The healthcare stuff, well, you are in a free program, you have rights but you also have obligations, nothing wrong with that.

And although I think people should be able to chose not to vaccinate their daughters, I can't imagine why you wouldn't, except that if it's gonna be mandatory, it's got to be free.
