The government is promising a “triple lock of privacy” for COVID-Safe app users and it will be a criminal offence to misuse the data or pass it on without the permission of the user. Follow live updates:

website as a way to help keep the community safe from coronavirus, but advises that it needs to be kept open to work effectively. This requirement will almost certainly be a drain on batteries, although the government website says battery consumption on tested devices is "only marginally greater with the app running, particularly on devices that are already Bluetooth-enabled".

“Your device will take a note of contact you’ve had with other users by securely logging the other user’s reference code. If you or someone you’ve been in contact with is diagnosed with COVID-19, the close contact information securely stored in your phone can be uploaded and used—with your consent—by state and territory health officials to quickly trace people who’ve been exposed to the virus.

“Social distancing need not apply in classrooms, but with staggered returns we can ensure there will be enough space for staff and students to spread out.” "Obviously schools are very safe places, but there are some parents who are still reluctant. Somewhere there has to be that balance making sure there’s a sense of confidence built."

I want to be told who has recovered alongside the numbers who are contracted China virus.

lol, already released the app. This government has already shown itself more than capable of lying auspol covid19australia

If amazon etc are all involved in development - what protects data from being used by overseas companies? The George Orwell quote keeps coming back to me

If this app is this accurate then why can’t it let people know when a sex offender or pedophile is near them also?

And if you believe this guarantee, I have a beachfront place in Alice Springs you may like to purchase.

Another Murdoch paper, why the he'll would we believe you.

Maybe we could inject to save us from the virus?

Lol

Yeah Right! It was a criminal offence to get into “ Medicare’s my health “ website too - how did that work out for you ?

lol still NO!

No amount of wasted money of convincing me it's secure and private will convince me it's a good idea to download a government tracking app on my phone. What will future updates bring once we've accepted the T&C? Auto update to a more invasive version? Used to contact 'witnesses'?

Because we should believe this government 🤔

This isn’t well perceived but a stigma to mental health. COVID19 topic should consider an appropriate audience. Everyone will buy into but won’t like it.

If it’s so private, why would you worry about possible privacy infringements,unless of cause it is likely to happen when some under paid public servant is made offer to good to refuse,can assess some persons information and pass it on.

Pull the other leg.
