I explain how COVID-19 Tracking apps using Google and Apple's Exposure Notification System help keep your personal data private. This includes the NHS COVID-19 app in the UK and many round the world. Matt Gray | http://mattg.co.uk | @MattGrayYes 📲 See if your region has a contact tracing app available of this kind: https://www.google.com/covid19/exposurenotifications/select/ More Information about Exposure Notification System: https://www.google.com/covid19/exposurenotifications/ ✨ Follow me elsewhere on the internet: http://twitter.com/MattGrayYes http://instagram.com/MattGrayYes https://www.tiktok.com/@MattGrayYes http://twitch.tv/MattGrayYes http://facebook.com/MattGrayYes T-Shirts now available at http://shop.mattg.co.uk FAQs: 🔹Isn’t it made by SERCO? Nope: https://fullfact.org/health/Serco-test-and-trace/ 🔹Is the code open source? Yep: https://www.nhsx.nhs.uk/blogs/code-behind-nhs-covid-19-app/ 🔹What about location QR code scanning? If you scan an NHS QR Code into the app, it adds the venue to a list of venues you’ve been to in the app. The app regularly downloads a list of venues that have had a potential large risk of transmission. If that was the place you visited on the day you were there, you will be notified. This QR system is much better than what came before because it doesn’t involve giving every venue your contact information directly. https://www.spectator.co.uk/article/has-the-abuse-of-test-and-trace-started-already- 📖 References 📖 World Health Organisation Contact Tracing https://www.who.int/publications/i/item/contact-tracing-in-the-context-of-covid-19 "99% of mobile devices are Android or iOS" https://gs.statcounter.com/os-market-share/mobile/worldwide UK Government test and trace support payment and fines https://www.gov.uk/government/news/new-package-to-support-and-enforce-self-isolation Why Android's location setting needs to be on https://support.google.com/android/answer/9930236?hl=en-GB Standard Coronavirus Precautions: https://www.who.int/emergencies/diseases/novel-coronavirus-2019/advice-for-public Chapters ~Kit I Use Regularly~ Sony RX100M2: https://amzn.to/2JcxQxt Snapchat Spectacles (Circular video): https://amzn.to/2GQ6AXc GoPro Hero 7 Black: https://amzn.to/2ACdQ4u DJI Osmo Camera: https://amzn.to/2JcHP64 DJI Osmo Pocket: https://amzn.to/31Q4hLm iPhone X: https://amzn.to/2V9V265 Tascam DR-10x Audio Recorder: https://amzn.to/2pXQZun Røde NTG2 Mic: https://amzn.to/2GHS3gi Røde Smartlav+ Mic: https://amzn.to/2H1CEVJ All Amazon links are affiliate links which give me a small percentage of what you pay them as a tip for sending you their way.
