Do rights change, or does the expression of a right change? I believe everyone has a right to an education. Obviously that education will have changed from 4000BCE to 2013. What about the right to create and choose family? How does that intertwine with society's thoughts about homosexuality?
I guess a good answer to that question would be a PhD dissertation, not a HN comment. I wish I knew the answer, or that it was easy for me to express.

Very true :) we are not the first to discuss this. Nor is it the first time a legitimately interesting HN post about technology has turned into a side debate about quasi-libertarian philosophy.
