Foxx Posted April 11, 2020 Posted April 11, 2020 (edited) it's just about ready... are you? Apple and Google debut Bluetooth-based contact-tracing platform to combat Covid-19...and end privacy? Apple and Google have unveiled an app – soon to be built into their mobile operating systems – that will trace users’ contacts to fight Covid-19. They insist it will be ‘opt-in’ and respect privacy, but we’ve heard that before. The tech giants announced they were working together on a Bluetooth-based contact-tracing app on Friday. The platform will debut as an API – a tool programmers can use to integrate the functionality into their own apps – next month, the companies said, and will eventually be built into the iOS and Android operating systems themselves. ...

Expand I hate the idea of this pandemic being used to end privacy, and I’d really like someone to explain to me the point of contact tracing. Contact tracing is used for containment of disease. Aren’t we past the point of contact tracing when the virus is everywhere? I haven’t read anything discussing this point either. We need to admit we’ve lost this battle as far as containment, and the virus will do what it’s destined to do. I’m in favor of maintaining the lockdown, and keeping people as safe as possible, but contact tracing is meaningless at this point imo. Edited April 11, 2020 by SirAndrew 2

Covid is crushing a lot of healthcare systems as they drop almost every other patient to try to care for them. All the above happened in just a couple of months and during a virtual lockdown, where the flu numbers are for a full year with no lockdown. Stop comparing this to the flu. It isn’t the flu.
