Contact Tracing

[willphila]

Any of yall, especially those with a s/o at home, concerned about the contact tracing supposedly coming?

"The technology giants said they were teaming up to release the tool within several months, building it into the operating systems of the billions of iPhones and Android devices around the world. That would enable the smartphones to constantly log other devices they come near, enabling what is known as “contact tracing” of the disease. People would opt in to use the tool and voluntarily report if they became infected."

Yeah, it did briefly cross my mind yesterday with all the tracing talk, but I'm guessing LE will look the other way (as many already do now) when it comes to the "who have you been in contact with" question comes up. Either that, or we all will have to stock up on burner phones.

All of this data, many thousands of data points for each of us, are already constantly recorded by our smart phones. The 'tool' being developed is merely an app which will chronicle that data to be used by LE/pandemic response. Most individual rights we had went out the window years ago with the twatriot act.

Simplest way to circumvent this? Turn off your phone before heading to your preferred locations. Don't do any searches of said locations on your personal or work devices that links back to your actual personal information. The tactics paranoid people use are actually exactly the ways you should take if you don't want traces done on you. If you really want to, you can even have a 2nd phone with burner sim that you bought with cash for you to use to contact "people" and maybe use for GPS to get to said locations. Wanna go even more paranoid? Don't use your vehicle so if cameras are ever checked and license plates ran, your won't show up
