1/ This tweet is important for the future of contact tracing apps.

Few weeks ago, Michael with his colleagues of 7 European institutions created the decentralized privacy-preserving proximity tracing system called DP-3T.

It was the most serious proposition we had on the table.
2/ Then EU created the “Pan European Privacy Preserving Proximity Tracing” (PEPP-PT). Naturally, DP-3T was the best project they can take and work on.
3/ What Michael wrote is f*cking strong.
- “PEPP-PT is a trojan horse”
- “PEPP-PT represents an attempt to get Apple to lower its device-level privacy protections”
- “PEPP-PT represents closed industrial interests”
4/ Contact tracing apps is a really bad idea. They know the idea is beautiful on paper but it’s technically impossible to put in place and be efficient against #COVID19. So they do what they do the rest of the year: politics.
