PS: and I believe that there is hardly a scenario where moving fast even if breaking things is more called for than pandemic response, particularly regarding privacy where most problems are of the kind "if we did that for decades, eventually abusive patterns would develop" - e.g. mass mail voting is fine done a few times, but if it was routine you'd eventually have most ballot forms filled under some form of supervision. On openly privacy-invading tracing method that is so bad that it's clear that it won't survive until after the worst of the pandemic is over might end up being less invasive long term than something that is "so safe that it can become a fixture" (it isn't). But leaving the fast-moving to those least concerned with privacy is still a recipe for disaster.
