Google Promised Its Contact Tracing App Was Completely Private—But It Wasn’t – The Markup

Shocked I am.

SHOCKED!

@JohnPhilpin But all they do is collect data, just like Apple. Right? Right John? Exactly the same!

@renevanbelzen Do you know if that report has been proven by other people? I don’t doubt the general idea — makes sense when you think about how much surveillance people are generally willing to accept and I’m vaguely aware that similar studies have been made — but I also don’t think it’s ever good to treat a single source of information as the unequestionable truth.

@renevanbelzen Ah OK. The study looks interesting either way, thanks for the link.
