Apple and Google Covid-19 Contact Tracing

This is a blessing and a curse.

It will create a president and soften public opinion on tracking people.

BUT the current positives are immense. If implemented well the most of the economy could be up and running again while keeping corona under controle like South Korea.

So overall I think it’s a positive.

would it still be a positive if the president-cum-dictator used this tool or some descendant of it to track & trace political opponents across the country before jailing/murdering them?
