Interesting that your much-vaunted US Constitution doesn’t actually
guarantee any right to privacy, does it?

I doubt that the forefathers could have foretold that there would

that most people would willingly buy, use and install it in their homes
in an effort to make their lives less miserable.

The full fourth amendment...

   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.

Perhaps Lawrence would like to review implications of that amendment.
Definitely rules out surveillance without probable cause — and without an
oath or affirmation, SPECIFICALLY describing the place, person and things to
be seized.

So, yes, law abiding citizens of the United States do have the right to
privacy, guaranteed in the Constitution.
