gollark: Presumably the idea is that the contact tracing apps would keep it turn on, and people would have to suffer the slightly higher battery drain.

gollark: The rough idea of the decent-for-privacy idea is apparently to have each phone have a unique ID (or one which changes periodically or something, presumably it would store all its past ones), and devices which are near each other (determined via Bluetooth signal strength apparently) for some amount of time exchange identifiers, and transmit in some way the IDs of devices of people who get inected.
gollark: I see.
gollark: What's that using, then?
