According to DOJ's finding in 1997, which security procedure was found not to violate the Fourth Amendment?

  1. Advanced Imaging Technology

  2. Profiling

  3. Random Searches

  4. Checked Baggage Screening

The correct answer is: Profiling

The finding in 1997 by the Department of Justice (DOJ) stated that profiling as a security procedure does not violate the Fourth Amendment. This means that, according to the DOJ, officials are allowed to use profiling as a way to identify individuals who may pose a security threat. Options A, C, and D may be considered unconstitutional because they could potentially violate an individual's privacy without reasonable suspicion or probable cause. Random searches and checked baggage screening, in particular, could be seen as arbitrary or discriminatory methods of security. While advanced imaging technology may seem like a more advanced and efficient method of screening, it may still raise concerns about privacy and civil liberties. Therefore, option B was considered the correct answer by the DOJ as it was not found to violate the Fourth Amendment.
