It's absurd to think the ACLU is 'totally cool' with forcing an entire nation to stay in their homes, or wear masks, but 'livid' about contract tracing. I can understand why you might immediately think that because we are so concerned about 'privacy' these days, but just consider what is going on for a moment. 'Stay at home' -> OK 'You must wear a mask in public' -> OK 'Contact tracing' -> Controversy! No, the fact we are in a la-la land existential crisis changes everything. If universal contact-tracing is a viable solution to get things moving, then it's exceedingly rational to require it. And without a vaccine, it's absolutely viable - we know this because it works in S. Korea. Everyone gest the app, or something approximating it, testing should be relatively widespread and effectively focused on 'contacts' - and we can keep Covid at bay so long as we follow the rules and a bunch of other precautions are taken. It's been demonstrated to work.
