1. Whats new about the war on terror is that it was a war against terrorist. Which made it a war against anybody that we felt threatened by. Its different from traditional wars because it involved other countries and they would fight over land and resources.
  2. The “Roving Wiretaps” of the patriot act seems to violate the bill of rights because it uses devices to snoop out criminals and terrorist without them knowing regardless if they are a suspect or not. This violates the fourth amendment by invading their privacy through mobile phones without them knowing or giving consent.
  3. The “Sneak and Peek” warrants gave the government the right to search someone’s home or business without notifying the target of the investigation.

  1. Hey Kelsey i agree with your statement “Sneak and Peek” This departure from the usual requirement of informing individuals about a search warrant before conducting a search raised civil liberties concerns. The secretive nature of these warrants allowed law enforcement to gather evidence without the knowledge of the individual being investigated, potentially infringing on their rights to privacy and due process.
