The constitutional inversion


The constitutional inversion

Fourth Amendment: Should protect against surveillance without a warrant. “Implied consent” is used to bypass this.

First Amendment: Should protect your right to share knowledge. Laws like DMCA criminalize disclosure, again bypassing constitutional intent.

Judicial capture: Courts often side with corporate/government interests, treating implied consent as valid even though it contradicts the spirit of constitutional protections.
