I don't know that I've got any legal scholarship to back me up, but that never stopped me from having an opinion.
It seems to me that our rights acknowledged by the 4th and 5th Amendments boil to a right to "Freedom from Scrutiny" (and I think this is also implied by the 1st Amendment). That is, the government should pay us no mind at all, unless it's come to their attention that there's something illegal going on.
I think that viewing things through this lens clears up a lot of ambiguity. It holds together as a coherent philosophy and resolves a lot of potential uncertainty, when the law is confronted with new technologies, etc.
