If I'm a officer I will use any legal means to stop criminals

Anything that goes out onto the Internet is likely to be filtered and word scanned. Even in a Internet company, technicians have the ability to use packet sniffers and pick out any internet data packet floating through the networks or even on the hard disk drive of a router or server.
Earlier this week the European Commission’s attorney Bernhard Schima told the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) the US-EU Safe Harbor framework does not work. The framework process supposedly protects personal data. In 2013, however, it was discovered the NSA and its British counterpart — the GCHQ, short for Government Communications Headquarters — had siphoned off data transfers by tapping directly into under sea cable networks.
In fact, according to a lawyer representing the Austrian government before the CJEU, Safe Harbor is better suited for pirates than the protection of data of EU citizens. In other words, the system was designed to be hijacked by the NSA and GCHQ.
In 2009, Mark Zuckerberg told the world Facebook is in essence a platform for harvesting data and conducting surveillance. “People have really gotten comfortable sharing more information and different kinds,” he told an audience at the 2009 Crunchies Awards ceremonies in San Francisco. Zuckerberg said “sharing” data — that is, surrendering private data to the government and corporations — has become the “social norm.”
“Facebook may as well be called Stasibook,” I noted in 2012 when the corporation rolled out its IPO. “It is the most effective surveillance tool the world has ever known. Nearly a billion people love to be not so secretly data-mined, every chat and friend connection tucked into super-computer data reservoirs at the NSA.”
“The scientific dictatorship has done a ‘good’ job in brainwashing and manipulating the masses,” writes Sandeep Parwaga. “Don’t be fooled by the deceit. The mainstream media has been very reluctant to cover the disturbing Google/Facebook ties as it would expose important assets for the Big Brother machine and its secret use to destabilize.”

It's unconstitutional to arbitrarily search everyone, it's called the fourth amendment.

Facebook is a public forum, even if you set everything to private.

Not exactly true.
The fourth amendment is protection from illegal search and seizure. Anything put on public media is free game. Kinda like a meth lab in your yard spotted on a patrol.
