"Privacy is dead" - Google CEO
" that leaves data on the device until users call in sick"
No such thing as "data on the device". At least not in Android: Google has access to *everything* and will use that access every 0.5 seconds. And there's no way you can stop it. You can't stop or prevent OS (i.e. Google) access to any data in the phone.
You might have *a copy of data* locally but *everything* is sent to Google. Literally.
Who is the idiot who believes "application" can hide something from *OS*? Are they morons? Or do they believe that Google doesn't abuse data worth of billions?
If they do, they *are* morons.
"The companies also clarified that data will never reach a public health authority - or Apple and Google - until a person tests positive for COVID-19 and opts in."
Yea, sure. Android exists solely for spying users and this is blatant bullshit. *Any* data OS collects will be sent immediately to Google. Who's the moron who actually believes this?
Apple the same, of course but less resale, as far as I know.
