Pan-European Privacy-Preserving Proximity Tracing (PEPP-PT)

jeudi 23 avril 2020 à 02:00

*The Pan-European Privacy-Preserving Proximity Tracing (PEPP-PT) consortium … removed [all] mention of the decentralized protocol proposal Decentralized Privacy-Preserving Proximity Tracing (DP3T) from its website.* The people developing that protocol found out when they saw their work had been deleted.

This stinks of an intentional effort to increase surveillance. Europeans, fight this now!

If you don't put as much effort into protecting your freedom as into protecting your immediate health, your effort to "stay safe" is unbalanced!

Bully shielding employers

jeudi 23 avril 2020 à 02:00

The bully wants to shield employers from legal responsibility for workers' catching Covid-19 at work. Why would US workers want to sue their employers about this? I see two rational motives.

It is impossible in general to determine whether a worker contracted Covid-19 at work or elsewhere, so I think a company should be responsible for maintaining working conditions that make transmission unlikely, according to a clear and adequate standard.

I don't expect Republicans to support that.
