It's neat how many genuinely good points regarding information security and privacy made it into the coalition agreement, but everyone knows that just because it says in the paper that a new gov't wants to do something does not mean they do it.

That's a common misconception. 80% of the commitments in the previous coalition agreement were fully or partially implemented: https://www.bertelsmann-stiftung.de/de/unsere-projekte/monitoring-der-demokratie/projektnachrichten/versprechen-gehalten-schlussbilanz-zum-koalitionsvertrag-der-groko-2018-21 https://www.bertelsmann-stiftung.de/de/unsere-projekte/monit...

- monopoledance 5y agoWhile that's true, the Green party and FDP seem to mean it, when they pushed for these rights and progressive legislation - and combined, they have the majority within the coalition. Here is to hope.
- freeflight 5y ago> they have the majority within the coalition A majority within the coalition does not translate to a majority in the Bundestag, which is what's needed to put any of these many promises and plans into actual action.
- monopoledance 5y agoWell, obviously. However, they can push for it within the coalition, which in total does have the majority. Obviously. My point is, both parties have a better track record for putting weight behind their "promises" than the SPD, which is a spineless vessel for anyone taking the leash.
