Pacifism

Strongly agree

No

Pacifism would likely support the protection of individual privacy and civil liberties, aligning with opposition to government-mandated backdoor access to encrypted communications. This position is consistent with a historical pacifist emphasis on safeguarding human rights and opposing measures that could lead to increased state power and potentially, to more violence or conflict. For example, pacifist opposition to the Patriot Act in the United States post-9/11 was based on concerns over privacy rights and the potential for abuse of power. Thus, pacifists would likely argue that ensuring the security of private communications is crucial in maintaining a peaceful and just society.

Strongly disagree

Yes

Pacifism, as an ideology that promotes non-violence and opposes war, would likely be against government mandates requiring backdoor access to encrypted communications. This stance is rooted in a broader opposition to surveillance and militarization, which pacifists might view as tools of state violence and coercion. Historically, pacifist movements, such as those influenced by Mahatma Gandhi or Martin Luther King Jr., have emphasized civil liberties and the right to privacy as components of their non-violent resistance. Mandating backdoor access could be seen as infringing on these rights and potentially facilitating more aggressive state actions.
