      I've never seen Android source code, but I like the idea of private fun.
      Down with racism. Long live miscegenation!

        Don't be silly. We'd all rather bitch about government conspiracies and how incompetent they are. At the same time!

          Because the source code is released, it doesn't mean it is what is actually running on people phones

            Yes, reviewed it. Not convinced they've found a workaround to make the iOS beacon/ranging work in the background reliably. I think the app will get shelved and they will continue with development of a decentralised app using the Apple/Google APIs.

              Will it harvest discreet data. I don't want HMG to know which Russian Oligarchs I have been meeting. Don't want them to know about the tax avoidance meetings at PWC either. Or the fact that i'm slipping out of lockdown for a bit of nookie on the side with an MP's wife (I don't want them telling my wife either!)

                Your wife is too busy to care.
