Considering a definition of privacy being " freedom from unauthorized
intrusion " I think the 4th Amendment pretty much meets that definition.
I figure you must think everyone who exercises their 5th Amendment privilege
against self-incrimination must be guilty, too.
If not of what they're accused of, then at least guilty of something.
In the words of one of the most famous Jonesburg cartoons:
"Guilty! Guilty! Guilty!".

Exactly. "Has become" are the operant words. Recent interpretations have
extended the 4th amendment protections far beyond their original meaning.
