In Decrypt: "Tech companies and governments are working together to build surveillance apps in order to control the spread of the coronavirus... Enigma is building [an] app that shares location data and infection status without revealing... personal data." Read more here about the balance between privacy, surveillance, and stopping pandemics.

The world is accelerating towards digital IDs for all
The worldwide coronavirus pandemic has triggered a new focus on a global ID system. But it could be an Orwellian nightmare.

SafeTrace: April 2020 Development Update
We’ve built an MVP demo and front-end integration, joined the TCN Coalition, and will host an upcoming webinar with Outlier Ventures.
In Coindesk, Benjamin Powers explores if public opinion is shifting on privacy in the wake of COVID-19. Enigma's Tor Bair is quoted:
“If big tech firms commit to defending the privacy and security of their users by default, then users will expect privacy as a universal value,” said Bair. “Anyone who then takes advantage of that trust will be punished by users, not to mention regulators. In this world, privacy technologies become an essential core of any product.”

Public Opinion Shifts on Big Tech and Privacy During Pandemic
In good news for contact tracing, attitudes to big tech companies are softening. But the shift may not be good for "privacy tech."
