Does Entick v Carrington constitute a search and seizure within the meaning of the Fourth Amendment?

MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from United States v. Aguiar, 737 F.3d 251 (2nd Cir. 2013):

[i]t is important to be clear about what occurred in this case: The Government physically occupied private property for the purpose of obtaining information. We have no doubt that such a physical intrusion would have been considered a search within the meaning of the Fourth Amendment when it was adopted. Entick v. Carrington, 95 Eng. Rep. 807 (C.P.1765), is a case we have described as a monument of English freedom undoubtedly familiar to every American statesman at the time the Constitution was adopted, and considered to be the true and ultimate expression of constitutional law with regard to search and seizure.
