The CNN article talks a bit more about privacy issues. This bit caught my eye:

It’s only available on iOS because Aaron says the app would have to collect information that could ultimately put users at risk to provide the same experience on Android.

I would like to see some details about this. Perhaps there’s a way to work around that problem, even if it meant publishing on F-Droid instead of Google Play.

    Oh yes, specially designed masks for MEDICAL purposes, designed to be usable for childreb abd the elderly are harder to breathe through for tough macho guys like this than some bullshit they bought at a gunstore.

    Clearly they only care about protecting themselves and can’t be bothered to protect others.

      You people are so weird. At no point did i say that medical masks are hard to breathe through. I only said that whatever they are wearing will be easier to breathe through. Obviously the standard masks are also pretty easy to breathe through, billions of people did it for 2-3 years without any major problems.

        What you’re doing is white-knighting for the gestapo. That’s weird.

        Quit trying ‘to be fair’ towards thugs who absolutely give zero shits about being fair to you.

        To be clear: I’m not saying you aren’t factually correct. I’m saying that, in the Thunderdome of public sentiment, that sort of comment comes across as excusing fascism and that’s why people are rightfully getting pissed off at you for making it.

        I merely said something designed formedical use is probably easier to breathe tbhough than something designed for military use. Y’know, thick materials are harder to breathe through. Wouldn’t want a wild boar, terrorist or immigrant tearing through it to reveal your identity.

        So it’s probably harder to breathe through a bandit mask that than a thin little surgical one.
