Again: there is no evidence, that smartphone tracking will anyway improve contact tracement. And anyway, the moment you act on such volatil data, phones will get swapped and left at home.https://twitter.com/Plinz/status/1243490133199880195 …

Smartphone tracking is being used in several countries already. Do you have data that suggests that these measures did not work or that people did not comply, or are you conjecturing?

In germany any kind of non-consensual tracking will be opposed and public health data gained by imperative tracking will fail to be reliable. I think, the way to go is using decentralized contact data retrieval and anonymous information to poossible contacts/transmission 5/5

In practice you are already being tracked, and the data is sometimes being used (in Germany) to determine whether you attend political protests etc. Companies also implement de facto consumer scoring based on which stores your phone physically visits (in the US).

Changing public opinion on medical tracking may be very easy while a few ten thousand people die on hospital corridors, and the authorities can point at possibly infected rich idiot kids going to parties.
