Do We Need A New Fourth Amendment?, Orin S. Kerr
Do We Need A New Fourth Amendment?, Orin S. Kerr

Slobogin roots this principle in Terry v. Ohio and its pragmatic balancing of law-enforcement and privacy interests.

The steady expansion in the use of surveillance technologies by the state and private sector represents a substantial threat to the privacy of ordinary individuals. Yet despite the best efforts of civil libertarians, many members of the public still struggle to understand why privacy is valuable and deserves to be protected as a basic right.
