Foreign corporations are much more aggressive about harvesting data than the German government so you should think twice about using their products in the first place. Most of the time the German government is under fire for privacy concerns it’s because they trusted products from Microsoft or Huawei and the like.
My bad, I had the german government mixed up with probably the brits who are constantly saying they need to be able to read everyone's messages. That said. It's hard to know what the intelligence arm of a government is really doing. So if they give themselves a backdoor, it's hard to ensure only they come in. And the government is always only one election away from dramatic policy changes.
