Correct answer: "Protects Americans against unreasonable searches and seizures. No soldier, Gov agent, or police can search your home without a search warrant."

Brief clarification: the Fourth Amendment bars unreasonable searches and seizures and generally requires a warrant supported by probable cause and particularity. (There are well‑established exceptions — e.g., consent, exigent circumstances, plain view, search incident to arrest, and the automobile exception.)
