   Massachusetts launched a COVID tracking app, and uh, it was automatically   
   installed?!

   Over the weekend, Google and the state of Massachusetts managed to   
   make creepy COVID tracking apps even creepier by automatically   
   installing them on people's Android phones. Numerous reports on   
   Reddit, Hacker News, and in-app reviews claim that "MassNotify,"   
   Massachusetts' COVID tracking app, silently installed on their Android   
   device without user consent.
