> I am yet to hear of any such cases, when it comes to tracing apps based on the google/apple tracing API. data leaks in the api itself will come to light, rest assured. but as you said, the problems with everyting besides the vendor-api have already caused a lot of privacy havoc. > ou might get a false positive with a neighbor, by placing your phone next to a wall, but that's really an edge case. in a literal sense; yes :D but let me assure you that ppl putting their phone near a wall is absolutely not uncommon. > Plain false. Apps based on the API do not have users location data again you seem to willfully misconstrue the allegation. let me tell you that just because the tracing app itself does not have precise location data, the problem of creating yet another record on your phone, attesting your behaviour, is not going away. i take it you are not (yet?) critical of privacy implications of your $dayjob, but try to respect the concerns of ppl that are unilaterly affected by them.
