?:abstract
  • Today, with the rapid spread of COVID-19, many governments and start-ups are coming forward to develop smartphone apps that trace where we all are, whom we met and for how long, with a goal of interrupting new chains by informing potentially exposed people These new platforms make use of anonymous use of Bluetooth technology and GPS, enabled either on smartphones or armbands in order to prepare maps corresponding to quarantine monitoring, contact tracing, movement tracking, social distancing and density reports With different apps for different countries, one thing most of the apps facilitate is tracking To save lives during an extraordinary crisis, many governments are willing to overlook privacy implications Keeping in view that the sensitive data being collected is not exclusive to public health organizations and governments, this chapter explores different apps that were developed aiming to combat COVID-19, and the related personal data privacy concerns that arise in the post-coronavirus era © 2020, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd
