Under the Fourth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, when assessing whether a governmental action has infringed on an individual's rights, the court must balance both, but ultimately grant the government the ability to do whatever it deems necessary.
Explanation:
The Fourth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution protects the “right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures. No warrants shall be issued without the reasonable cause.
It upholds the security of the individuals against the subjective invasion by the government and its officials. Privacy protection is ensured. The government must take step in a balanced manner so that the privacy rights are not crossed and the security of the individual is ensured.
