To defend its citizens from harm, must the government have
unfettered access to all information? Or, must personal privacy be
defended at all costs from the encroachment of a surveillance
state? And, doesn't the Constitution already protect us from such
intrusions? When the topic of discussion is intelligence-gathering,
privacy, or Fourth Amendment protections against unreasonable
search and seizure, the result is usually more heat than light.
Anthony Gregory challenges such simplifications, offering a nuanced
history and analysis of these difficult issues. He highlights the
complexity of the relationship between the gathering of
intelligence for national security and countervailing efforts to
safeguard individual privacy. The Fourth Amendment prohibiting
unreasonable searches and seizures offers no panacea, he finds, in
combating assaults on privacy-whether by the NSA, the FBI, local
police, or more mundane administrative agencies. Given the growth
of technology, together with the ambiguities and practical problems
of enforcing the Fourth Amendment, advocates for privacy
protections need to work on multiple policy fronts.
