Let's be absolutely real the CDU wants complete government access to all private communications on demand with essentially endless retention. They just aren't allowed yet.

Information does not seem to be the bottleneck at all! (Too) Many times, when we read about the person responsible for some sudden attack, everything needed to prevent that attack had already been known well before the attack. It's just that the authorities didn't do anything.
Sure, one may say there are too many people fitting the criteria and we cannot do anything with so many potential suspects, most of whom have not actually done anything. But more information won't help in these many cases at all.
Examples (German) - all reputable sources, mostly local public broadcasting (ARD) and one law publisher:

Only thing the AFD has to to is to keep their feet still and wait. The ruling parties will do the rest.
First time I heard that, what bubble are you from?
Being incompetent and shortsighted is enough. Being blinded with the idea that Germans will keep electing them and choosing them for power feeds their incompetence. They want extreme powers now. They don't think the extreme powers they give to the various organizations will be used against democratic society. This is just the repeat of Weimar republic.
Meanwhile they are filling Germans with hate against minorities and benefactors of the social system which legitimizes AfD. They also keep doing nothing (which is their core-competence really). They fix no parts of the broken system. This legitimizes AfD even more.
