The constitution limits what the government can do. It protects the people from the government. It even says the powers not given there in the constitution are reserved to the people.
I guess you have really never even read it. Go read it.
What the 4th says is that the government shall not fucking pry into the people's lives without just cause and then it may, but only after a warrant.
Your feeling that it is all one in the same is belied by just that one article of separation telling the government what it can't do.
There is nothing in the document telling the people what they can not do.
Like I said, go read it. The anti-constitutionalists just love ignorant people. Don't be one any longer. Go read it.
