Keep on believing that [bigrolf]Quote:

Even though I signed up in the first couple of hours on day 1, I've just received a govt txt msg asking me to sign up - and yes I have android and I know the app is switched on.

Common sense is slowly prevailing!
Personally I don't care if the government collects data on me, they already have a ****load anyway. Don't care if they track my movements, which the CovidSafe app doesn't do anyway, cause I don't go anywhere they care about. Oh, hang on a mo, if I carry a mobile phone that's turned on they can track me anyway!
Its interesting to see people bitching about the effects of the lock-down on their personal life and/or businesses on the one hand - but won't do the thing that will go a long way to getting things back to near normal cause they feel their right to privacy might be breeched.
Of all the unconvincing arguments I have read from people who say they won't download the app, this is surely the weakest, least logical, most shortsighted of them all.Quote:

When I asked some time ago for someone to explain to me exactly how they thought their life would be impacted by the health authorities getting hold of the data the app collects, all I was offered was a (presumably hypothetical) story about your wife getting information about your mistress.
I am still waiting for a specific example from someone about how their life will be affected. I can understand that if you are a drug dealer or an adulterer, you might be reluctant to respond. However, there must be some of us here who lead more mundane lives.
