The party manifesto also outlined a sweeping change of course in terms of data protection policy, encouraging more “pragmatic” rules that allow data to be used for innovation and growth, as well as law enforcement.

SPD as a junior Partner to the Union has a history of just allowing them to do whatever they want
True. But the social democrats are the only feasible way to a majority for Merz right now without the help of Nazis. There is at least potential strength in that. Plus the SPD know about their past. They’ll have to find a way to strengthen their party’s position in government somehow. They may surprise us with the spontaneous growth of a backbone in this area, under new leadership. All I’m saying is the die is not cast yet.
Yeah, but the SPD now has a long tradition in surveillance and police support. Especially if Nancy Faeser stays interior minister
My crystal ball tells me she will not be part of the next government. I think very few of the current SPD ministers will be. Possibly none of them. The stink of the past, failed coalition “Ampel” government will keep them out.
As I said before, it’s too early to despair, there is potential for surprises, and we should keep an eye on it.
