No, the fourth amendment establishes the weight of the right of privacy: Amendment IV The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized. In other words, the standard for violating privacy interests is relatively low, and can be settled by legislative debate, just as a magistrate is competent to make a determination in the case of search and seizure, without a profound test.
