Orders
gollark: Just pirate all scientific papers. It's very ethical, I checked.
gollark: Although it is entirely possible for governments to be bees and do that anyway.
gollark: It isn't very trackingy. They designed it cleverly so that it works anonymously and doesn't centrally report location data or something.
gollark: The exposure tracking API was actually quite competently designed for privacy.
gollark: Are there? I thought flu vaccine uptake wasn't that high since they aren't very effective.
