Read what the app can do and what it does with your data.

Then read what specific data, from what source, may be shared with the police amongst others.

This is a non-story. There's a problem for all of us if people don't isolate for the appropriate time period. The law requires them to and they may be fined. It's not app data doing this

A simple subscribers check would reveal all they wanted to know anyway.

The data is shared in order to check people have been told to self isolate so they can be dealt with accordingly.

I'm not sure about "The Feds" but it has been announced that our very own police will be told on a case by case basis if someone has been instructed to self isolate. What that means that if a person is suspected by the police of being told to isolate, the police can ask the holders of the data whether you have been told to isolate.

Uninstalling the app just suggests that you wouldn't conform if told to isolate.

Thankfully, I'm past the stage where this sort of tinhat, Trumpian conspiracy theory would annoy me.

Unless you have no social media, no mobile phone, no computer, no bank account, no NHS number, no NI number, no car insurance, and mortgage or other financial agreements, the 'Feds' already know everything about you. Apart from possibly if you went to Wetherspoons last night. Oh no they'd get that from the CCTV and your phone!

We live in a world full of technology used to record and track us and our preferences, at least the NHS app has a useful purpose!

The police or overworked and understaffed.

I doubt that they have the will or manpower to "mission creep".

So far as fines go. Anyone selfish enough to risk spreading a potentially fatal virus, deserves a big fine that actually impacts on them.

I'm not sure that uninstalling an app can really be classed as "fighting hard", and I'm not sure the freedom of "not isolating when potentially a public health risk" is worth fighting for.

I'm a curious sort, so I'd love to hear what 'hard fought' entailed and also what freedoms exactly have been lost?

We're being asked to wear masks, stay at home and reduce contact with people. It's not exactly a concentration campus it? I thinks it's actually highly insulting to anyone who does have restricted freedom, or has fought hard for their rights.

Sometimes a step back and a little perspective does wonders for us all

I'd better add for clarity, it's up to you if you have or use the app. There's an accepted social responsibility to using it as it is designed to help the current situation. How much it does can be questioned, but it's meant to.

Some of us think it's a reasonable ask, more so if we've got friends and family in the Police, or NHS.

I guess my point is, have an opinion. If you're basing it on something spurious, on a forum, people will chip in.

The freedom to infect others..

" It's not exactly a concentration campus

Sounds like Northumbria University, where guards prevented students from leaving their Halls of Residence ?!!

Chances that they university guards consulted the Police, GOV or PHE before doing that? More likely some enthusiastic but misguided people trying to help. "

I would wonder how a security guard thinks that they have the power to restrict a student of their liberty to leave their accomodation.

These universities thought only of the 9k per person and then cage them like battery hens ...

"The point is this... I don't need an app to self isolate..

Especially a flawed one..

Having to sign in at pubs, restaurants and shops...

How comfy will some be when the swingers club reopen and you put your QR code reader on...

These are scary times..

"

We have to sign into hotels, gyms etc when we arrive. It's not a big stretch for that to extend to other public places while this is happening.

We've been to VA and Xtasia and scanned into both, don't see a problem with it.

If this was just the UK, or EU with sets of restrictions like this, I'd see the concern. When, ever, have all the governments of the world agreed on anything? If it's some sort of conspiracy, then every government on earth is in on it. And what do they gain that they didn't have already? Nothing. If we follow the conspiracy theory through logically, surely 'they' already have all out info?

Food for thought

I don't know if it's true but there is a cut off point for returning fees. If they keep them there until chriy then close then there will be no refund of fees..

Another scandal.. profit before people.. cafe them up, take their money then send them home with a present for granny this Christmas

How could you ever meet anyone from this site? What if they're just harvesting information and are a fully spies for the deep state? What if the secret police are laying a trap for you by pretending to be swingers but actually they're going to imprison you in a torture camp!!!

Or you could be crackers? One of the two will be closer than the other

It's actually nothing to do with the app. But there you go, you have found 'your' reason to delete it.

If you had tested positive and someone like your neighbour or your cat reports you for breaking isolation to the Police. The Police can apply to access the data that Track and Track have, to see if you are under isolation rules.

You would be better deleting your Google account because that follows you everywhere. That and 30 other apps you have on your phone right now. Like every time your phone accesses a phone mast or updates your email or records every single word you say in an SMS ad-infinitum.

Or rather. .staying in the room they have just moved into when leaving home for the first time, not knowing anyone, and now not allowed to meet or talk to anyone or indeed use the 'amenities and luxuries as standard' beyond their four walls as they are self isolating. In rooms that are exempt from space standards that apply to other accommodation as they are not designated as permanent dwellings

Suicide is a real risk at university halls every year. This was a dick move on the part of universities chasing the cash.

I had to have a little giggle to myself when i read this thread. It's typical of all the misinformation that has and is being spread about mainly over the internet about Covid.

The police being asked to enforce quarantine rules has absolutely nothing to do with the NHS app. It is for people that have been rung by Track and Trace and told that they have had a positive result from an actual test and then asked to self isolate.

Once again, a case of "internet warriors" getting on their high horse and going off half cocked.

It was actually about the terms of the license. It didn't fall under the bar bill, however they chose to close at 10 to bring it in line with the rest so people wouldn't feel it was one rule for one and another for them, but in reality it didn't break any covid laws as it had a completely different license.

"Read what the app can do and what it does with your data.

Then read what specific data, from what source, may be shared with the police amongst others.

This is a non-story. There's a problem for all of us if people don't isolate for the appropriate time period. The law requires them to and they may be fined. It's not app data doing this

There's a problem for us all if people stop testing. "

It's important that people aren't deterred from testing, especially if inaccurate information gets put out there that erodes public trust even further. It's a pity in many ways that fab doesn't delete inaccurate posts, even though we users may correct the ops.

People are advised to isolate - track and trace don't get that info' through the app unless you go get a test and are positive.

"Read what the app can do and what it does with your data.

Then read what specific data, from what source, may be shared with the police amongst others.

This is a non-story. There's a problem for all of us if people don't isolate for the appropriate time period. The law requires them to and they may be fined. It's not app data doing this

There's a problem for us all if people stop testing.

It's important that people aren't deterred from testing, especially if inaccurate information gets put out there that erodes public trust even further. It's a pity in many ways that fab doesn't delete inaccurate posts, even though we users may correct the ops. "

An interesting view which I respect.. but who decides what the truth is? Is there one truth? Is that approach about the truth or censorship..

Perhaps censor the views of all anti vaxers.. after all. Their views are flawed right ?

Now that's an interesting point. There is only one truth, it's part of the description. Whether any of us know it is another thing entirely. All we can do is decide on our threshold for evidence when we state something as 'fact' or 'truth'. The pandemic has given rise to a lot of opinions dressed as facts, with little to no substantive evidence. I think most reasonable people are happy to have different opinions than others. What grates, is when the other opinion is clearly utter non sense that can't be supported. Amazingly, when challenged, a lot of the sources of these truths reframe the conversation to other topics rather than debate the facts of the subject at hand.

People are fascinating creatures......

so much for patient confidentially. It has emerged that people who have been told to self-isolate through NHS Test and Trace could have their contact details shared with police on a "case by case" basis.

Certainly won't be affected by by you deleting an app..

But if they want to watch you...

Psst Tom, that phone thingie..

That's how anyone can 'watch you', target you with adverts after you do a search, locate you using the same tech..

You don't need to have someone given access to an app..

Exactly because the moment you put your details into your phone, any app like Facebook, twitter, Instagram,"they" have your details.

Now that is very very concerning for me...

So, fair's fair. What exactly are people not taking seriously. Explain the point, and the evidence that led you there, and how this app is different from other apps, tech etc you may already have.

Many people here said . . . the app does not report on you. Track and Trace ONLY know about YOU when YOU present yourself and are found positive . . .the POLICE (if they get a report that you have broken isolation) can check with track and trace to see if you are supposed to be isolating.

And then those people said you have deleted the app without understanding how it works properly.

To try and round this off, we're all guilty of being passionate about what we believe, even if we're wrong. It's good to see people fighting for their opinions in a public forum, debate and opinions can often improve everyone's understanding, which can't be a bad thing.

We have to sign into hotels, gyms etc when we arrive. It's not a big stretch for that to extend to other public places while this is happening.

We've been to VA and Xtasia and scanned into both, don't see a problem with it.

If this was just the UK, or EU with sets of restrictions like this, I'd see the concern. When, ever, have all the governments of the world agreed on anything? If it's some sort of conspiracy, then every government on earth is in on it. And what do they gain that they didn't have already? Nothing. If we follow the conspiracy theory through logically, surely 'they' already have all out info?

"The feds have been given our data on the NHS app

Fuck that...

Deleted

I'm not sure about "The Feds" but it has been announced that our very own police will be told on a case by case basis if someone has been instructed to self isolate. What that means that if a person is suspected by the police of being told to isolate, the police can ask the holders of the data whether you have been told to isolate.

Uninstalling the app just suggests that you wouldn't conform if told to isolate.

Cal

They can fine me for not self isolating but they can't fine me for not installing the app.

Freedoms were hard fought and easily lost.. I don't trust these buggers not to mission creep.

But I know the, 'if you have nothing to hide brigade' will be out in force...

I'm not sure that uninstalling an app can really be classed as "fighting hard", and I'm not sure the freedom of "not isolating when potentially a public health risk" is worth fighting for.

Cal

I'm a curious sort, so I'd love to hear what 'hard fought' entailed and also what freedoms exactly have been lost?

We're being asked to wear masks, stay at home and reduce contact with people. It's not exactly a concentration campus it? I thinks it's actually highly insulting to anyone who does have restricted freedom, or has fought hard for their rights.

Sometimes a step back and a little perspective does wonders for us all "

Love this.... Dead heads wake up!!! It's going to be a long winter.

"No..your freedoms

Mine?

They're ok ta..

Certainly won't be affected by by you deleting an app..

But if they want to watch you...

Psst Tom, that phone thingie..

That's how anyone can 'watch you', target you with adverts after you do a search, locate you using the same tech..

You don't need to have someone given access to an app.."

Fedex are being given our data ?

I think most folks would sleep soundly at that, seeing as they they can barely manage to deliver parcels, let alone safeguard data

Joking aside, we live in a digital world, and leave a digital footprint everywhere we go across many disparate systems. Finding someone is ridiculously easy if the authorities need to. Coupled with machine learning and AI, it's a doddle.

(I'm not a conspiracy nut. Science geek with some surveillance background. Sounds glamorous but in reality it's quite dull. Left the field 20 years ago.)

I would advise if you are seeking to lay low, don't advertise it to all and sundry. That's a red-flag for a start.

Tom, they could be watching this very thread and know you started it! The only way to be safe might be to delete your profile ASAP.
