Privacy is very much enshrined in US law, it's the 4th amendment to our constitution.

4th amendment is specifically limited to unreasonable search and seizures.

It doesn't mean that you have the right to privacy in any and all situations.

Strange how the NSA can just skate through this. Then again, the US Constitution also says "All men are created equal" and that was a bunch of horseshit for centuries.

Laws need people willing to uphold them. It's a good thing when laws are unreasonable, and a bad thing when people are unreasonable.

Nope. You are thinking of the Declaration of Independence.
