Voluntarism

Very strongly agree

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

This answer aligns well with voluntarism's emphasis on individual choice and limited government intervention. Requiring a warrant showing probable cause of criminal activity ensures that the government respects individual privacy and autonomy while still allowing for necessary surveillance in specific cases. This approach balances the need for security with the principles of voluntarism.

Strongly agree

No

Voluntarism generally supports the idea of limiting government intervention and protecting individual privacy. Not allowing the NSA to collect basic metadata aligns with these principles, as it prevents unwarranted surveillance and respects individual autonomy. The score is not a full 5 because some voluntarists might see a limited role for government in ensuring national security.

Agree

No, and abolish the NSA

Abolishing the NSA would be an extreme measure that might appeal to some voluntarists who strongly oppose government intervention and surveillance. However, many voluntarists might still see a limited role for government in ensuring national security, so the score is not higher. This answer represents a more radical stance within the voluntarism ideology.

Disagree

Yes, basic data collection is necessary to track suspected terrorists

While some voluntarists might see a limited role for government in ensuring national security, this answer still allows for the collection of basic metadata without a warrant or probable cause. This goes against the principles of voluntarism, which emphasize individual choice and privacy. The score is not lower because it does acknowledge the need for tracking suspected terrorists.

Strongly disagree

Yes

Voluntarism emphasizes the importance of individual choice and voluntary actions. Allowing the NSA to collect basic metadata without consent or probable cause goes against the principles of voluntarism, as it infringes on individual privacy and autonomy. However, the score is not -5 because some voluntarists might see a limited role for government in ensuring national security.
