<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;margin-left:0px;margin-right:0px;text-indent:0px">The Fourth amendment reads this way: </p>
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;margin-left:0px;margin-right:0px;text-indent:0px">The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.</p>

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;margin-left:0px;margin-right:0px;text-indent:0px">That is, the security guard at a courthouse may peer inside the lawyer's briefcase to look for a firearm or contraband but may NOT confiscate or copy the papers therein. In a similar manner, the government needs a warrant to inspect the contents of your personal "snail" mail.</p>

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;margin-left:0px;margin-right:0px;text-indent:0px">I believe, very strongly, that your laptop and/or your "smart" phone are the modern equivalent of a briefcase. They certainly meet the modern definition of "effects."</p>

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;margin-left:0px;margin-right:0px;text-indent:0px">We now know what many have surmised for a decade or more: The NSA is analyzing the metadata of nearly all of our electronic communications (of all kinds) without a warrant and is storing the contents of those communications for search at a later time if the situation seems to suggest that relevant data might be present. And the warrant for that search is signed by the FISA Court in its Star Chamber.</p>
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;margin-left:0px;margin-right:0px;text-indent:0px"></p>
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;margin-left:0px;margin-right:0px;text-indent:0px">The result is simple: your persons, houses, papers, and effects may and can be searched without a warrant issued by a court whose records are open to the public.</p>
