This article isn't about covid, this is about the longer term prospects of having corporate-government cooperation in sharing data about your day to day activities, contacts, any other information on your phone and building infrastructure to make that even easier than it is now.

They also seem to have no plans mentioned about ripping its hooks out after the covid emergency is over, or a 3rd party monitoring what they are up to or the source code being open for investigation for 3rd parties.
