The AFL WAG has a tough message for the millions of Australians who haven’t yet downloaded the COVIDSafe app.

COVIDSafe, a contact tracing mobile app which can help alert others who have come into contact with those who have contracted coronavirus, was launched by the Federal Government recently.Prime Minister Scott Morrison has called the app our “ticket” out of lockdown and likened it to wearing sunscreen outside – but we need 10 million to download it for it to be successful.

Explaining she did think twice about “the Government tracking my every move”, she said she looked into how it worked and determined she was “comfortable” because it was a tool that can “help get us back to where we need to be”. “Think about the information you punch into your phones and your computer every day,” she said. “Where abouts you shop, where you eat, where you travel, every single thing that you buy.”

When did Bec Judd get a degree in cybersecurity?

Whether people are willing to use it or not we need to know more-- Up for a 'ticket' to a normal life resuming -- with or without privacy? We need tech with philosophy of “privacy by design” like iotex_io where privacy is not compromised.

Great let’s get some endorsements for this app from a few more footballers wives they are suddenly experts on the matter!! Who pays them for this credible endorsements? What’s the marketing budget for this app? Is it a popularity contest to get it?

And does anyone care about her attitude?

Yep stick to what you know u as an “influencer 🤬” you ain’t no doctor or medical expert

😂😂😂i love how you morons let this get to you

Yea because you are a ln Afl players wife, that automatically makes you an expert

Her life plastered all throughout social media & is NOW concerned about her privacy? really

Go to hell, and shove your simplistic excuse for reason, I’m capable in thinking for myself without the deep wisdom of a footballer wife to guide me

This lady must have got a degree in computer science and SloMo must have shown her the source code. I’m installing now NOT

Well good on her to express her thoughts

Well Done in promoting this app, you have influence over your many followers and I applaud you for choosing to speak up. 👏

Was going to download it this week but now 'Bec' has told me i have to i wont....Irrelevant people should not comment

another reason not to download it

Who gives a fuck what Bec Judd says

Wow I better get it now. A nobody has said it’s a good idea.

Who cares? Some relative unknown’s Insta post is news 😮

The lunatics are everywhere

Stick to giving advice about putting on shit parties and cocaine use

And?

becjuddloves self interest. COVIDー19 7NewsAustralia

Self preservation. wags

Never heard of her.

I don't have a smart phone. Why don't they have a app for HIV?

And we are going listen to a minor celebrity’s wife? Not sure what she does really & don’t care but if she’s not a medical or IT expert why should we listen to her?

Who gives a shit.

Juddy was a hero of mine ... when he married this vacuous twit Iost all respect for him

Finally, an expert.

She’s a celebrity. She has a nice rack. She’s contributed so much to MensHealth We must listen to what she says about COVIDAPP 😘

Not all heroes wear capes

she married a person who plays football .

Why the hell are we turning to this person for advice? Does anyone even care about her? Or know who she is? Go away with your crap excuse for news !!

Well if some woman who is famous for being married to someone else says so...

get in line, MATE!

She’s famous for what again? If she were someone who worked in the health field and had knowledge of the virus, I may pay attention. If anything, the virus has taught us who’s important and relevant in the world and it’s not Z grade celebs. Move along.

Oh piss off, skeletor! I was 50/50, but after seeing ur skeletal remains tell me what to do, i aint dl it. See what u done! 100s of ppl will lose their lives thx to you. great job!

Would probably take her more serious if she didn’t have that stupid filter on 🤦🏻

Why are you tweeting this again? No one gives a fuck about her

A tough message wtf are you on about?

Glad to hear this. Have been feeling at wits end with sceptics.

Fck off Bec Judd

Yeah but how does Nadia feel about it

There’s only one Judd I like and it’s this Fucken guy!!

where are her lips?

We will not download it if you continue to force people with threats you will be put up on bullying and harassment charges

Quick everyone! do what the celebrity says !!

She's influencing you all now people. The fact that you're talking about her means precisely that. Ignore it.

Who said what now?

Obviously hubby is running out of money she needs him back at the afl

Already done🤗

Bec Judd's expert post on Instagram summarised in a convenient, succinct GIF:

Rebecca Judd = Baaaaa baaaa

She/Her has that Zoolander look, that's enough to convince me, I'm off to download the app.

Your app developers with software man turned WHO Emperor Bill vaccine every bastard Gates.

You must need it to get into Coachella or order gourmet food.

How to make being tracked by your government look glamorous.

Deleted the app after seeing this...

Look at moi look at moi

Oh if Bec Judd says it's ok then it must be. W

I have never heard of this person, why is she lecturing me?

Please stop talking

Who in the blue hell is that

Her and Pete Evans would make a lovely pair 🤪🤪

The day I accept a lecture from that airhead, is the day I volunteer for a test vaccine, personally injected by Bill Gates, lol.

We would get back to normal life if we keep restrictions up. If Australian government promises to keep restrictions until Australia has no active cases, I would download it. The restrictions and the app together can wipe out the virus faster. Come on ppl, we can do this.

Let’s all download an app which isn’t operational says a WAG .. 😳

The only app Bec needs is FaceTime. Flipped!

Marcia60683959 here we go another nobody telling people what to do

Simple minds swallow any garbage.

Good news for all of us living by the mantra WWBJD

Oh the same woman who posted she is hiding from her kids at times during COVID19 lockdown? The one inside her 7.3mill dollar hone who demanded we must get back to work? Guess what dumbass the majority of those with jobs are still working on the frontline /2

So tired of this insta fuck influencer

Please correct this. She ain’t an “AFL WAG” anymore people. Last time I saw Judd play for Carlton was years ago.

Well that’s it I’m definitely downloading, who would know more than someone that that gets Duck Lips and breast enlargements now that’s high IQ and a Wag.🤔😁😂

Who?

Piss off Bec

NO ONE GIVES A FUCK ABOUT THIS IRRELEVANT HORSE HEAD. PLEASE MAKE IT STOP!!!!

I can now sleep safe at night now🙄

Who

Someone make her a sandwich already

You got to feel sorry for the Judd's, Corona virus must be having a huge affect on the number of bags being delivered to their house

This is a load of BS .. so the govt is more or less saying either you download this app or we will remain In lockdown.... really .... and yet there’s outbreaks still Happening schools closing etc Lol btw I ain’t downloading no app

Information on App is going nowhere yet, it is not even legislated yet. Sniffer dogs would be more effective !

The state's can't even agree to the security measures needed for this app. Privacy protected by law I keep hearing, but that policy has not even been written or agreed to. Maybe by Friday it will be, maybe not.

How much she getting paid ?

Not all hero’s wear a Cape

Bec going for a walk

Thank god your here to let us know about what it is being said on instagram. Heroic journalism 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡

How much were you paid to say this shit?

The country is not in lockdown. It is a semi shutdown. Shops are open, schools are open, tradies working, building sites open, takeaway open, outdoor activities permitted. It's dumb people like her that let useless political leaders into power with no scrutiny.

Who is she?

No idea who she is but I have my own tough message back. Go fk yourself sweetheart

Really. Because a WAG said. I'm just a nobody who appears in a Michaelangelo painting. What would I know. I have done it.

Lol...a WAG that supposedly has an IQ of more than 2

So brave... 🙄

If that's shutting down contrary opinions I've got a trip to Mars to sell you.

Who is Bec Judd?

Um wgaf?

Mind your own business love.

🙄

Try caring for older and more vulnerable people who depend on social isolation to satay alive rather than self centred people who are prepared to sacrifice them in order to be free to go to the pub.Would there be such a clamour if the virus attacked the young?app

As if anyone gives a flying fuck what Rebecca Judd says. Does she think we're all going to download the app just because she said so.

Let’s listen to this brain box

who?

WHO

Thanks for your opinion Judd. What’s your specialty/scienc degree in again? Cyber experts have also told us that it can’t be hacked, which is odd, because that’s not really how this works; any App can be hacked... so I’m not sure how they are “experts” in this field.

it's not mandatory to download it, it's a choice and it's not up to her to bully people into downloading the app.....I know a lot of people don't even have enough memory on their phone for it........stick to being a wag.

Paid influencer

A shill paid to tear herself away from the mirror for a moment to instruct the rest of us?

Why are you promoting these nobodies? Insignificant clothes hangers that live off their Instagram post hoping that they will achieve some level of relevance.

Well that settles it then

WTF is this article. I better download it since Bec told me so. seriously

I agree, but I’m not downloading it because she tells me to do it. Perhaps put a story up about a scientist who backs it

I am now a convert to the NRL

Oh ok, now Bec Judd has told me to do it, I will...who is Bec Judd? 🤔 I don't think I'll take my IT security advice from an AFL WAG!

If Bec could allay my concerns on legislative powers under the Biosecurity Act that would be great. Until then I'll just browse her Adairs Bedspread selections instead.

A filter with butterflies on your face while trying to promote a gov app seems a bit off, as does the editing cuts of the video.

So I said to my mum like I got the app like 'cos that WAG got the app and we laughed.

WHO

Who

I have a tough message for her instagram filters: it’s OTT. It’s cheesy. It’s devoid of class. Now kindly STFU 😂

lol

She's so brave. I say give her a Nobel prize but she'd probably complain and ask why she wasn't getting the bell

Stunning and brave.

Still not getting it

I do not need to be told but a gold digger that is only worried about herself to down load an app .

When did people in our country become so easy to convince that government data collection would be safe Have you lot lost your mind 'oh but facebook track etc. etc' So They arent the govt. The govt is the team that wants to play the game AND set the rules for only YOU!

Where would we be without IG influencers? Stay brave Bec for all of us

You can’t be serious

Isn’t she an anti-vaxxer?

Give me a break. Who would listen to this would be if she could be. And what is she receiving for sprouting this message. I hear she is the queen of receiving freebies for anything she promotes. No freeby, No promotion.

Any news from Kim Kardashian on the uptake of the COVIDSafe app? Dying for any update.

When I want her opinion on something I will just shoot myself instead

I’m confused as to how this woman’s opinion is relevant or even needed?

becjuddloves Too funny! So despite the reluctance of govt to release the source code or develop legislation with a sunset clause, & cyber experts advising of larger risks & other countries not succeeding with this App, youre informing us to support it. singmeup🤣🤣bekind

Oh right, she's an expert. cough

becjuddloves is not a public health expert and did not mention anything about TESTING...the app cannot trace what has not been tested, e.g. an untested asymptomatic carrier wondering around with the app on their phone...No from me.

Who tf is Bec Judd and why does keep trying to make it a thing

I feel sooo shut down. Gee she really handed it to me.

was she paid to say this endorsement? many influential celebs don’t do something for free

Whammen who married rich lectures the population.

I was about to download but this just changed my mind. Thanks 😉😉😉

Pass

AFL wag - is that like a dogs tail? the app doesnt work. stilgherrian says no … BBC says no … ABC says no …

Bec Judd is a washed up bimbo. Let’s all take advice from someone who seeks validation on Instagram 😂

😂😂 FFS

Shit I'm running to the app store now.

ooo a celeb I don't even know or care about is telling me to download a government tracking app... Yeah. That's a big NO from me. I am sure she is doing it tough.. Not. What a joke!

AFL Wag you need to go Europe and meet the wives of Real Madrid footballers and realise how plebian you really are.

Well I have a message for her but there are too many expletives.

Why are you promoting the opinions of a self important stick insect? I thought you wanted people to DL this app.

Great 'endorsement' 😜 Omg

Just to clarify this is the same Bec Judd who respects her neighbours privacy so much she posts all over social media when they are doing yard work 🙄

I,for one, do not do anything until an Instagram influencer says it’s ok

Wow wouldn't a Doctor who knows what they are talking about be a better endorsement than a so called influencer.

Jesus on a bicycle I’am so over this woman...

A wag is absolutely no endorsement!

COVIDSafe tracing app is not yet operationalAustralians desperate to return to the pub and get back to playing their weekend sport have been told by the prime minister the only way forward is to download the coronavirus tracing app. Rubbish. An app is Not the answer It only records data if your within 1.5 meters from someone for 15 minutes. Under current social distancing laws we have to be over 1.5 meters away from everyone so the app will record nothing unless your flouting the law.
