I think you fail to account for the fact that we are talking about Constitutional issues. We are not talking about what is an appropriate level of privacy protection under the law. We are talking about what is the <i>minimum standard</i> where a 200-year old document trumps the policies of a democratically elected government.<p>We are also deciding that question on the basis of a phrase (&quot;reasonable expectation of privacy&quot;) that doesn&#x27;t even appear in that 200 year old document.
