We simply cannot say this enough:
1. Turn off your location services.
2. Turn off your phone completely when you don’t need it on.
WE are allowing THEM to create a virtual police state. #COVID19 tracking is simply a building block of systemic real-time civilian surveillance.
At the heart of this technology is money, not altruism. These companies are not non-profits. Their profit ≠ your freedom.

You control your #privacy through your choices.

@vegardskjefstad Interesting at a quick glance, but seems like the average person won't understand how it really works, is still easily manipulated into more nefarious goals, and "anonymization" is subjective to those that hold the data. However, at least it attempts to be up front.
The fact that mobile devices even have location tracking embedded into apps and services without proper consent is problematic.
Thank you for sharing the link.
