Agree

No

Left-wing nationalism, with its focus on protecting the rights and freedoms of the populace from external and internal threats, would likely oppose measures that could infringe on privacy and civil liberties, such as government-mandated backdoors into encrypted communications. This stance is rooted in a broader left-wing skepticism towards state surveillance and the potential for abuse of power, prioritizing the protection of individual rights over state security measures that could be used to suppress dissent or monitor citizens without adequate oversight. The opposition to such policies can be traced back to historical instances where governments have overreached in the name of national security, leading to violations of privacy and human rights. Therefore, left-wing nationalists would likely support strong encryption as a means of protecting citizens from unwarranted government surveillance and ensuring the integrity of personal and sensitive communications.

Disagree

Yes

Left-wing nationalism often emphasizes the protection of citizens' rights and freedoms against overarching surveillance and control by the state. Historically, left-wing movements have advocated for privacy and civil liberties, viewing government intrusion as a potential threat to individual freedoms and democracy. For instance, in the context of the global surveillance disclosures initiated by Edward Snowden in 2013, left-wing activists and parties around the world were among the most vocal critics of government surveillance programs. They argued that such measures were excessive and infringed on personal freedoms and privacy. Therefore, requiring tech companies to provide backdoor access to encrypted communications could be seen as antithetical to the principles of many left-wing nationalists, who would likely argue that it compromises privacy and civil liberties in the name of national security.
