What Fourth Amendment issues are raised by the new communication technologies that are exploding onto the scene? For instance, is there no expectation of privacy for any cellular phone conversation? What about e-mail messages? Should the government be able to look at e-mail without your permission?
The fourth amendment issues raised by new communication technologies is that the information about any person can be obtained by people in power if they wish to get any information. Earlier this was possible only in certain warranted conditions only but now there is no such provision. Therefore, there is a possibility that phone conversations and e-mails will will be available to the government. No, I believe that the government should not be able to look at my e-mails without my permission as I would not be comfortable with it. The government should consider the privacy of the citizens and take there permission before carrying out any such activity.
