Do u have afternarket oversized wheels? If so, upgrade ur system or downsize the wheels.

one usually feels rotor warp at low speed, not high speed.... so I dissent from that opinion

take it to you mechanic....likey idler arm or similar front end item....tho it could be the rotors are warped, but that's not why you are feeling the violent shaking. that would mean multiple items are worn. and only 4yrs old?

pop back in and tell us guessers what the deal finally is

Seems like either of these two would cause shaking all the time... not just when braking.
