There are laws about that already. However they have exceptions (and most people support exceptions. No one expects for example the privacy of ISIS terrorists be respected when they are investigated for terrorism and there are probable cause).

Probable cause is the exception. The police should have to suspect a particular person and then get a warrant approved by a judge and then they can breach privacy. Just like it's always been. They keep pushing for a wider and wider net, though.
