Smartphone tracking apps
mardi 23 mars 2021 à 01:00Japan now requires people entering the country to have or acquire a smartphone and install some tracking apps on it.
This is not as bad as it first appears, because the requirement is only for the duration of the mandatory quarantine. Tracking your movements is not harmful when you never go anywhere.
The harm that remains even if you're staying always in the same place is that the phone can listen to your conversations all the time.
