So India launched this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/... last week.

It tracks your location and let you know if you have come in close proximity with someone who has been tested COVID-19 positive.

I don't wanna debate about the privacy concerns as India doesn't really get these things.

As for the moment, I will happily trade my location data for my life.

    Unless it's mandatory there's not a privacy issue at hand.

    If I've learned anything observing hundreds of Uber drivers, it's that everyone is always exactly one inaccessible block away from my location.

    @Jilano I mean until it reaches that point it's not an issue. It's completely voluntary at the time, therefore it's still not an issue at the time.

    However, @pythonInRelay is correct. It'll be like that where the dude took a shit load of phones and caused a traffic jam on Google maps. Someone's gonna get bored and fuck with the data.
