Far-Left

Very strongly agree

No

This aligns with the far-left's emphasis on protecting civil liberties and opposing government surveillance. The far-left is generally skeptical of mass surveillance practices, viewing them as tools for state control and repression, reminiscent of surveillance states like East Germany's Stasi.

Very strongly agree

No, it sets a dangerous precedent for government control over citizens

This statement resonates with far-left concerns about authoritarianism and the potential for government abuse of power. The far-left often references historical instances of government surveillance leading to oppression, such as in Soviet Russia or during the FBI's COINTELPRO operations against civil rights activists in the United States.

Strongly agree

No, I trust the technology but not the humans that could misuse it

This answer acknowledges a distrust in the authorities wielding the technology rather than the technology itself, which aligns with far-left critiques of power structures and the potential for misuse of surveillance tools against marginalized communities.

Slightly agree

No, this would be too expensive to implement

While the far-left may agree that the cost is a concern, their primary objections to mass surveillance are more fundamentally rooted in issues of privacy, civil liberties, and potential government abuse rather than fiscal considerations.

Disagree

Yes, but only if it’s tightly regulated and used with transparency

While regulation and transparency might mitigate some concerns, the far-left would likely remain skeptical of any form of mass surveillance, viewing it as inherently prone to abuse and a threat to civil liberties, regardless of oversight mechanisms.

Disagree

Yes, but only targeting criminal hotspots to protect vulnerable communities

While targeting criminal hotspots might seem like a compromise, far-left ideologies would likely still oppose this due to concerns over racial profiling, the potential for abuse, and the infringement on privacy rights. Historical skepticism towards 'stop and frisk' policies and racial profiling practices would inform this stance.

Very strongly disagree

Yes

Far-left ideologies typically prioritize individual freedoms and are wary of government overreach. The use of facial recognition technology for mass surveillance is seen as a violation of privacy rights and an authoritarian measure. Historical references include opposition to the PATRIOT Act in the United States and protests against surveillance in Hong Kong.
