In the UK I don't think there's a separate doctorate about Privacy and the Invasion of it. I think it falls under the Human Rights from the EU. (Been studying law for the past few days, so I apologize for being pedantic

Never will be enforced. It's impossible. If people want to smoke, they will. There's a point where a ban is in the public interest, and a breach of freedom.
