CONTACT TRACING......could U forgo your privacy for further protection? I have VERY convoluted concerns/feelings when confronted with this idea.

Nope. No question about it.

No, I would not.
Unfortunately, if you have a cell phone, as long as it is on you are being tracked.

We have already lost our privacy.

The reason I do not have one....NEVER ever believed that was a good idea....but, when U spend 17 years with a headset,umbilical cord and an earpiece,,you see things differently.

You've never had a cell phone? Seriously?

ONCE about a dozen years ago, my DH bought me a flip phone,because we lived in the mts.
he said use it for emergencies. Finding a signal back then was iffy, specifically in DCVR I think I used it once or twice.....never gave anyone the number (only DH)......it is still sitting inside the
desk....my husband deleted the service agreement.....I have email or landline with v mail.

I am always amused at the addictive actions of cell phone user,I Phone, Smartphone....the
frantic texting, the inability to NOT be connected...jmo, it has made the world too kinetic...

here it is... GOOGLE AND APPLE APPS.....arriving in your hood shortly.

CV measures may increase our privacy! Long beards, long hair, face masks and bandanas might make us very hard to identify!

But back on topic, in a decade will it get to the point that you no longer have to show ID? The TSA and other places will already know who you are and wave you through.
