I also find it odd that so many people who supported a physical lockdown baulked at the privacy implications of an app.
Obviously everyone has their own set of value judgments, so I can't say such people are wrong.
But my view is that an enforced lockdown wreaks far greater damage to society than the potential privacy implications from a tracking app. If it's an either-or choice, I'm choosing a tracking app over lockdown every single time. It's a no-brainer, and I consider myself a reasonably privacy-conscious individual.
