I use bluetooth with my car. I think I will just get used to toggling the bluetooth on to off whenever I leave my car. One more thing to remember. UGH!

I was in my settings, went to google from settings.
There at the top is COVID-19 Exposure Settings


Please tell me what this mess is and how did it get there?

Thanks

I see it too. All you have to do is turn off your bluetooth and location. I always have mine off anyway so it didn't ever trace me.

You only rent the tracking device. It is owned by your masters. Civil and Revolutionary war is the only way to fix this.

Once you root your android you can pretty much install anything you want.

make sure you do a complete backup of your phone before wiping it.

Says it can notify me if I’ve been near someone who has reported having COVID.

Our damn Govt has gone too far kicking everyone’s privacy to the curb.

Ridiculous
 Quoting: Deplorable Azila_Again


You dumb fuck. Read the fucking manual.

1. It's opt-in
2. You have to tell it what to share and YOU would have to tell it your tested positive.

You'd be a huge prick not to use it, but I can already tell that is what's going to happen.

no.
It works with WIFI Tracking and WIFI Triangulation.

It WILL ping the network for the COVID tracking, if you come withing 6' of someone else who's tested positive and put their name into a tracking app.
It will spread like a virtual virus from just a few people using it, and agreeing to upload their status.

Turning off bluetooth and location will do ZERO to stop your Android from interacting and affirming your location.

This is just the first layer, Irish eyes. The final layer, I strongly suspect, will be your Luciferian Mark of the Beast. It will be your nanomachine biometric hardware. It will reconfigure you completely mind, body, and soul to best compatible with whatever Contact Tracing nonsense they will have finalized in the future.

I can be very much wrong for the time being that the Contact Tracing BS will not be destroying your ability to use your smartphone however you so desire. You could very well opt out using such apps for a time. Then wait until you can not opt out of that crap as a fully fledged transhuman. Your biometric subsystem(s) will automatically upload everything as necessary even if you want to lie about that crap. The CPU that will be installed deep inside of your brain will also automatically filter all of your thoughts, beliefs, and everything else about you long before you ever think of such matters. How else will you be a proper transhuman when your PC Dictionary is updated and/or in operation?

Either you will be forced to buy a high capacity pocket battery thingmajig for your smartphone in order to be able to use the dang thing all day because of all of the Bluetooth usage, or you will have what I like to call, "Perpetual Smartphone Death". Bluetooth is most definitely a battery killer in smartphones at least.

 Quoting: Irish eyes

It doesn't unless you tell it you do. The idea was basically this- People got scared and wanted a real time tracker for this contagion. Simplest way to do it without tracking chips inserted was to use smart phones. So the gov encouraged the smartphone manufactures to up grade their products so they could track you (you being the phone and especially people who told it they were positive with virus). They asked the states to work with the phone makers and app developers to design apps that a user could tell the phone they had CV then other people on their apps could see where you were in relation or if you came within a danger area if transmissible.Think of it like a big map with red dots for infected people walking around. Good idea in theory but we know that data would soon be used against us. hf

As far as I know, no state sanctioned apps as of yet have been released. hf

Get a Faraday bag/pouch for your phone to prevent tracking.

Here you can get 2 for $16: [link to www.amazon.com (secure)]

You can also put your phone into a stainless steel pot with a stainless steel lid, and that works usually as well. You'll want to try calling the phone inside the pot to make sure it's blocking signals to verify it works.
 Quoting: STAX


I just tested with small mylar bag for computer parts,I put the phone in, but was not shielding it start ringing, then wrapped my phone in 3 layers of aluminium foil from kitchen and called from other phone, won't ring, seems to lose signal. 5a
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 78585132


Try the microwave oven, if it still rings then turn on microwave for 30 seconds and that will stop the ringing guaranteed.

I have this microprocessor sensor on my arm with a needle in me that sends to my phone. [link to i2.wp.com (secure)]

It's about the size of a US or Canadian Quarter and needs replaced every fourteen days.

That needle is about one-half inch into my arm.
