Maybe there is no need for the Fourth Amendment to apply - these rights are human rights and can be found in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) [1]. As far as I know the UDHR is not legally binding but there are other international laws covering the same topics as the UDHR, for example the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR) [2]. Maybe a bit naive, but at least in theory I - living in Europe - should be able to sue the United States for human rights violation if the NSA read my emails without justified suspicion.
