I'm actually happy about living in Europe with GDPR implemented. It was (and still is to some extent) a big hassle (me working in IT) and it was also filling up the news and inboxes for some time. Kind of like Covid-19 is now. It's possible to just send a company an email, ask them to delete all the data they have related to you that aren't required to archive for legal/accounting reasons and it will happen. I've tried. I'm also a bit surprised that "Covid-19"-apps is seen as a silver bullet to help solve the crisis. It's like the governments and big companies feel the need to fit the phrase "there's and app for that". Also, what will the actual value be? It's hard to see it as a consumer (semi-)quarantining in his/her home. Easy to conspiracy theorise on them finding a reason to just start watching everyone's step.
