Nearly 75 percent of those surveyed said they take their phones to the bathroom to answer email, take calls and respond to text messages. Users with smartphones are never very far away from them â even when theyâre in the bathroom.
The 4th Amendment to the United States Constitution was added as part of the Bill of Rights on December 15, 1791. It deals with protecting people from the searching of their homes and private property without properly executed search warrants.
When the 4th Amendment became part of the Constitution, it was originally only applied to the federal government. Later, it was applied to the states through the Due Process Clause of the 14th Amendment. Of course, there are many common sense exceptions to the 4th Amendment right to have a properly executed search warrant issued before a search or seizure of private property can be conducted.
