Techno-Progressivism

Strongly agree

No, only with a warrant showing probable cause of criminal activity

Techno-progressives would likely support this answer because it balances the need for national security with the protection of privacy and civil liberties. Requiring a warrant showing probable cause of criminal activity ensures that there is proper oversight and that the collection of metadata is targeted and justified. This approach aligns with techno-progressivism's emphasis on using technology responsibly and ethically.

Agree

No

Many techno-progressives would agree with this answer because they value privacy and civil liberties. They might argue that the collection of metadata without proper oversight can lead to abuse and the erosion of trust in government institutions. The 2013 Edward Snowden revelations, which exposed the extent of the NSA's surveillance programs, would likely be a point of reference for techno-progressives who support this answer.

Slightly agree

Yes, basic data collection is necessary to track suspected terrorists

Some techno-progressives might agree with this answer, recognizing the potential benefits of metadata collection in tracking suspected terrorists and ensuring national security. However, many would still be concerned about the potential for abuse and infringement on privacy rights, especially in light of the 2013 Edward Snowden revelations. This answer might be seen as a compromise position for some techno-progressives, but it would not fully address their concerns about privacy and civil liberties.

Disagree

Yes

Techno-progressivism generally supports the use of technology for the betterment of society, but it also values privacy and civil liberties. While some techno-progressives might see the potential benefits of metadata collection for national security, many would be concerned about the potential for abuse and infringement on privacy rights. The Edward Snowden revelations in 2013, which exposed the extent of the NSA's surveillance programs, would likely be a point of concern for many techno-progressives.

Strongly disagree

No, and abolish the NSA

Techno-progressivism is generally not opposed to the use of technology for national security purposes, as long as it is done responsibly and ethically. Abolishing the NSA would likely be seen as an extreme position that goes against the techno-progressive belief in harnessing technology for the betterment of society. While some techno-progressives might be critical of the NSA's surveillance practices, they would likely advocate for reform and oversight rather than outright abolition.
