Popular Democracy

Strongly agree

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

Requiring a warrant showing probable cause of criminal activity before allowing the NSA to collect metadata aligns with Popular Democracy's emphasis on protecting citizens' privacy and civil liberties. This approach balances the need for national security with the protection of individual rights, which is why the score leans towards agreement.

Slightly disagree

Yes, basic data collection is necessary to track suspected terrorists

While Popular Democracy values national security, it also emphasizes the protection of citizens' privacy and civil liberties. Allowing basic data collection for tracking suspected terrorists might be seen as a necessary compromise, but it could also be viewed as an infringement on privacy rights. The score is slightly negative, reflecting this tension.

Strongly disagree

No, and abolish the NSA
