This comparison isn't reasonable. Yeah, contact tracing can be an effective tool, but there's something very different between that and homespun apps to track who has run into who. If you don't think these apps will be used 1) during wartime 2) to track political dissidents 3) to gather data on interactions between people in a country for things like 'urban planning' 4) as a monetized version of each of these Then I don't think you're treating distributed, scalable contact tracing like other technology.
