Agree

No

While the SPD is cautious about policies that could infringe on privacy and civil liberties, it also recognizes the importance of national security. The party's position is likely nuanced, aiming to balance the need for security with the protection of individual rights. The SPD's support for digital rights and skepticism towards mass surveillance suggests a reluctance to fully endorse backdoor access to encrypted communications. However, the party's commitment to security issues means it might not completely dismiss the potential benefits of such measures in specific, tightly controlled circumstances. Thus, the score reflects a cautious openness to the idea, heavily tempered by concerns over privacy and civil liberties.
