Abstract

From the earliest days of the American Republic, our legal and political system has been devoted to placing limits on the powers of surveillance that authorities can conduct over the lives of individuals and private groups.This tradition of limiting surveillance goes back to a stream of development in Western history that begins at least as early as the democratic Greek city-state and represented one of the keystones of the American Constitution.
