Hi All...

*Canada Secretly Tracked 33MN Phones since Covid Outbreak*

Canada?s Public Health Agency (PHAC) has admitted to covertly tracking 33
million devices during the pandemic to assess "the public?s responsiveness
during lockdown measures" (National Post citing Blocklock?s Reporter).

A contract awarded to Telus' Data For Good program expired in October, but for
months it had helped garner "de-identified and aggregated" analysis. However,
a PHAC spox has confirmed plans to continue tracking the population for up to
FIVE YEARS.

Pandemic Surveillance author David Lyon believes "the Canadian public will
find out about many other such unauthorized surveillance initiatives before
the pandemic is over - and afterwards."

Ciao!
