An enhanced privacy amendment that incorporates the 4ths limited protections and expands them to encompass what the Clown Court eliminated from the 14th and 4th, making bodily autonomy and consensual activities explicitly protected, along with updating the 4ths protections on seizures to encompass a digital networked world.
