&gt; No right is absolute, and that includes the right to privacy. Criminals, for example, simply don&#x27;t have it.<p>I know nothing of Brazilian law, but in America, criminals have rights, including the right to privacy.  Convicted criminals and convicted felons do not, but that is an entirely different category, and your wording seems woefully imprecise.<p>&gt; Do you guys think that pedophiles, terrorists and drug dealers have the right to privacy ? I don&#x27;t.<p><i>Alleged</i> pedophiles, terrorists and drug dealers have the full panoply of rights available to them as anyone else until such time as enough supporting evidence may be provided that the police can say that a) a crime has been committed, b) the alleged had the means to have committed the crime, c) the alleged had the motive to have committed the crime, d) the alleged had the opportunity to have committed the crime, and often e) the alleged is very likely to have committed the crime.<p>Only after THAT hurdle is cleared may the rights of the alleged criminal be intruded upon by the state, and without a grand jury, even those intrusions must be minimally invasive.<p>At least in America, a judge cannot issue a warrant for the wiretaps you described on the mere accusation that &quot;so and so is a {pedophile,terrorist,drug dealer}.&quot;
