Whoa: the White House is calling the 4th Amendment of the Constitution a threat to National Security. This is a real memo sent out today: the yellow-highlighted sections just translate euphemism ("the Biggs Amendment") to plain language (Biggs' warrant req).

I had to pull out my various sources on the Constitution to obtain the wording of the fourth amendment. I learned from my World Book Encyclopedia (2007 ed) an interpretation that soft pedals how the first ten amendments, the Bill of Rights, were hotly debated between Federalists and Anti-Federalists, back in 1790. Representatives of some states (notably Virginia and Rhode Island) refused to ratify the Constitution without amendments specifically protecting individuals from unwarranted search and seizure. That is the essence of the fourth amendment.
In middle school Civics class, I learned the Bill of Rights existed as a guarantee of individual freedoms against an overpowering federal government.

Basically the 4th amendment assure there will be illegal search and seizure without a warrant (issued by a judge). I understand the House has just passed a bill legalizing warrant-less search and seizure of online activities and information.
