New Mexico is using cell phone data to track the movement of people within the state for information on whether people are abiding by stay-at-home orders, Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham says

The state wants to screen truckers who are bringing in supplies and take their temperatures but doesn't have enough temperature readers to do so, Lujan Grisham said."We're really nervous that this virus will follow travelers into the state," she explained.The state is using road signage to let travelers from out of state know that many state parks are closed and small communities should not be visited, Lujan Grisham said.

CNN has reached out to the governor's office for more information on how the cell phone data is being gathered and analyzed.The Trump administration is in discussions with the tech industry, including Facebook and Google, about how to use Americans' cellphone location data to track the spread of the novel coronavirus, the companies told CNN last month.Another pair of companies showed this month how tracking location data from phones can be used to monitor the spread of the virus.

Our freedoms are being ripped from us. Are Americans or are we lemmings

Pretty sure that is illegal and unconstitutional

I am from NM. I am not ok with this.

Tracking people isn’t going to change the fact whether they’re abiding or not

Who actually thought this would be ok

Wow, what in the actual fuckery is our govt up to.

Someone needs to sue.

It's not unconstitutional to lockdown your state in a state of emergency for health reasons, but it is unconstitutional to violate peoples fourth amendment rights. Emergency powers doesn't allow you to remove peoples constitutional rights.

Leave your phone at home. There was a time when you could leave your fucking house for a few minutes without it and the world didn't come to an end.

Leave your cellphone home .. and take it your motorcycles and cruise tell the sun sets..

Turn off your phone or leave it at home.

That is massively unconstitutional and very scary!

Google maps had been tracking your movements for years. If you don't want to be tracked. Leave your phone at home.

Terrible

'Abiding stay-at-home orders' CNN But, we're important? 😆 'I've been exposed to people in recent days who have subsequently tested positive & I had fever, chills & shortness of breath. I just hope I didn’t give it to the kids & Cristina,” he added.'

Counter by leaving your phone at home.

This is straight government overreach.
