The 4th Amendment exists to make the cops' job harder. Full stop. I do not care how much easier it is for them to do their jobs because of invasive surveillance, both because it's a violation of rights, and because they cannot be trusted not to use them in all sorts of other criminal ways we haven't even considered.
Do you believe the 4th amendment as it is written protects us from this surveillance today? Or that it should be "amended" to do so? Which part of the amendment do you find to be in conflict with Flock and why?
