I'd like to think the founding fathers were some of the smartest and most forward-thinking people of their time and they most certainly assumed that eventually people would need these protections. This is tantamount to the 2nd amendment argument where people assert that the founding fathers didn't intend for it to apply to today's weapons and the counter to that usually is that they didn't know the internet would ever exist yet things written on the internet are still protected speech so both are moot points and the protections still, and should, exist and be honored.
