There is an app where you have to give your whereabouts for one hour every day. If you don't fill it in or are unavailable at the location for that hour, you get a strike. Three strikes in a set period and you will get a ban as if you had been doping.

One problem with the system is that it relies on countries being strict with their athletes, which they aren't incentivized to do. Also, it's easy to "be available" but not get tested by going somewhere remote for a height camp for a few weeks.

Like Russia where the testers were running the doping program.

Like Spain when there are legal problems with testing on weekends.

Guess why only Basso and Ulrich get disqualified after the operacion Puerto and why Spain dominate in almost every sports for more than a decade.

I didn’t understand this. You have to show up at a location once a day and stay there for an hour?

[matsemann]

No, you have to give your location for an hour each day where you know you'll be. Like "on monday you can find me at the gym 12-13", or "Tuesday I'll be at the hotel room 18-19". And then you have to be at those locations.
