Wiretapping in the late 60s: How the Katz case impacted our privacy

The primary question for the Katz case is: Does the Fourth Amendment protection against unreasonable searches and seizures require the police to obtain a search warrant in order to wiretap a public pay phone?

Justice Potter Stewart wrote that “The Fourth Amendment protects people, not places.” The primary purpose of this paper is to express disagreement against this quote by Stewart and to analyze the Katz vs US case as well as the Berger vs. New York case. The sources that need to be used are attached as pdfs. Outside sources can be used. Analysis should include personal opinions backed by these three sources, and how these cases impacted society today, and how technology should result in a change of interpretation of the amendments written by our founding fathers.
