Just out: a 3-parts series with @JannesvanRoermu on #Covidpass #Covidcertificate We’ve been digging deeper in its links to #FunctionCreep and E-id. Bonus material: @RecheckHealth received a leak on what happens with our data when tested/jabbed #CovidGesetzNein #CovidGesetzJa (1/)
What distinguishes #FunctionCreep from innovation: it involves a qualitative change in functionality. One of the possible function creeps for #Covidpass #Covidcertificate coincides with the agenda of powerful interest groups. #privacy #dataprotection re-check.ch/wordpress/en/f…
Meanwhile, in Switzerland @BAG_OFSP_UFSP claims #COVIDcertificate is stored only locally in the App on your smartphone: "Neither personal data nor the certificates are stored in a central system”. A leak and further research showed: it's more complicated than that #UVCI (3/)

Just out: the second episode of our series with @JannesvanRoermu on #Covidpass #Covidcertificate #FunctionCreep. A maze of players work to make e-ID systems implemented worldwide and some are now surfing the #COVID19 crisis to make it happen. #CovidGesetzNein #CovidGesetzJa (1/)
Experts in the field of #surveillance and E-ID @whatsthatdata @Biometricstate explain: “The smartphone is now a vector of truth in the context of citizenship and health status and it is becoming a vehicle for economic recovery and stimulation too” #FunctionCreep #CovidPass (2/)
#CovidPass #CovidCertificate carries risk of #FunctionCreep because it coincides with the agenda of powerful interest groups. Since 2020 private and state actors present the implementation of the #Covid19 certificate as a gateway to wallet for digital identity (e-ID). (3/)
@EU_Commission @CharlesManoury told us: "The template made available to member states to store EU #Covid19 certificate is the first form of what can evolve into full-fledged #digitalwallet. Work with member states on this issue will continue in the coming months" #CovidPass (4/)
We also talked with @HEaLInsti_FMES about #Aadhaar the largest biometric identification system in the world, now linked to all sorts of data and systems “Without it, you can’t even get a passport anymore”. E-ID #biometrics #surveillance #Covid19 #CovidPass #FunctionCreep
