EU plans international coronavirus tracing network
Deutsche Welle ^ | 09.21.2020 | Andreas Noll | Adapted by Benjamin Restle

There is considerable cross-border traffic between Germany and France. Daily, German and French nationals cross the 450-kilometer-long (280-mile) border, as many either work or live on the other side. In everyday life, the frontier is barely noticeable.

But this cannot be said for France’s coronavirus tracing efforts. In the Northern Hemisphere’s spring months, France launched an app that does not utilize Google’s or Apple’s interface, and automatically stores a user’s contacts on a state-run server. Most other EU states reject this centralized approach, deeming it inimical to users’ data privacy.

France, which has the highest volume of cross-border traffic in the bloc, will not join the Europe-wide coronavirus tracing network, which is set to launch in October. For a week now, Germany, Denmark, Italy, Ireland, the Czech Republic and Latvia have run a pilot project to test out the new digital infrastructure to share data between each of the national coronavirus tracing apps. By all accounts, the test phase was a success. A spokesperson for the EU commission told DW all systems worked as planned.

Until now, national COVID-19 smartphone tracing apps have notified users who have encountered other potentially infected individuals using the same app. The plan now is to use a Luxembourg-based EU server to enable pan-European tracing and notifications. Once set up, Germany’s tracing app would be able to warn users who crossed paths with an infected person in another EU state, and vice versa. Users will be able to opt into this integrated EU-wide data sharing scheme in their respective apps. …

It’s a reasonably decent assumption.

Who has support nationally and internationally? Who funds worldwide and domestically? Who has support from the powerful to the not so powerful? Who has international agency support and domestic agency support? Who has foreign government support? Who is beyond questioning from our government? Who can destabilize/depopulate any place world-wide including The United States of America?

What HAPPENS when the 2 most EVIL individuals in the world ARE Americans?

nothing

1. George Soros
2. Bill Gates

Let that sink in, citizens of the world.

This could be how they legitimize the social media tracing ability already in place for a decade.

The meme ban and link tax were a preview of coming attractions.

Note to the UK: Brexit faster.

Funny thing is the google tracking crap. They plot Mrs rktman’s travels and think it’s my phone. Most of the time my phone is off laying on the desk. Take a call, make a call. That’s about it. Some friends get POd because they can’t reach me sometimes. But, I haven’t lost out on a million dollars yet. :-)
