> quarantine based on trust in people is eventually going to be ineffective In your country (wherever that is) perhaps, in the UK almost certainly. In Norway it is certainly possible and in fact happened quite near the beginning of the epidemic here. Nonetheless I feel that it is on the whole less of a problem here; solidarity is still a live concept in Norway even though it has been somewhat eroded in recent years. > You could and should be prosecuted by "smittevernsparagrafen" but that most likely won't happen even if you somehow DO get identified as the source of the infection. People have already been prosecuted for breaking quarantine, see for example https://www.vg.no/nyheter/innenriks/i/QoblPV/oslo-40000-i-bot-for-karantenebrudd https://www.vg.no/nyheter/innenriks/i/QoblPV/oslo-40000-i-bo..., https://www.vg.no/nyheter/innenriks/i/0nA4BA/fikk-20000-i-bot-for-aa-ha-festet-i-karantene https://www.vg.no/nyheter/innenriks/i/0nA4BA/fikk-20000-i-bo...
