=The 4th Amendment= The basic rule laid down by the 4th Amendment is this: Police officers have no general right to search for or seize evidence or seize (arrest) persons. Except in particular circumstances, they must have proper warrant (a court order) obtained with probable cause (on reasonable grounds). This guarantee is reinforced by the exclusionary rule, developed by the Supreme Court: Evidence gained as a result of an unlawful search for seizure cannot be used at the court trial of the person from whom it was seized.

Description
The 4th Amendment is about the rights the people have when it comes to the police wanting to come in to their homes and look at their things. If the police need to come into their homes they would have to have a warrant.

Historical Applications
This amendment was made when there was know technology. But now technology is everywhere and the government can watch you and listen to everything you say and do. But the amendment doesn't stop that because it doesn't say anything about it.

Today's Application
The amendment really only helps with stopping the police from coming into your home without a warrant.
