8 million people, 14 alerts : why some covid-19 apps are staying silent
▻https://www.technologyreview.com/2020/07/10/1005027/8-million-people-14-alerts-why-some-covid-19-apps-are-staying-sile

Critics have rounded on contact tracing apps in France and Australia for sending out almost no virus notifications. But experts say it’s not a total failure—as long as we learn what went wrong. When France launched its app for digital contact tracing, it looked like a possible breakthrough for the virus-ravaged country. After going live in June, StopCovid was downloaded by 2 million people in a short time, and digital affairs minister Cédric O said that “from the first downloads, the app helps (...)

The Dream of a Global Internet Is Dead

Trump’s ban on Chinese apps is part of a tide of digital nationalism “The dream behind the Web,” wrote the person who invented it, “is of a common information space in which we communicate by sharing information. Its universality is essential : the fact that a hypertext link can point to anything, be it personal, local or global, be it draft or highly polished.” That was Tim Berners-Lee, writing in 1997, eight years after he proposed the idea that would become the World Wide Web. He went on : (...)

In the morning, you check email. At noon, you browse social media and message friends. In the evening, you listen to music while shopping online. Around bedtime, you curl up with an e-book. For all of those activities, you probably used a product made or sold by Google, Amazon, Apple or Facebook. There’s no simple way to avoid those Big Four. Even if you subscribed to Spotify, you would probably still be using a Google Android phone, an Amazon speaker or an Apple iPhone to stream the music. (...)

Lawmakers investigating Facebook, Amazon, Google and Apple made it clear that their allegations of antitrust abuses come with a lengthy paper trail. Wednesday’s much-anticipated antitrust hearing subjected four of the tech industry’s most powerful CEOs to hours of aggressive questioning by Republicans and Democrats alike. But it also may have revealed something far more lasting : A Congress that has largely soured on Silicon Valley is beginning to figure out how to hold it to account, (...)

Your Objections to the Google-Fitbit Merger

When Google announced its intention to buy Fitbit in April, we had deep concerns. Google, a notoriously data-hungry company with a track record of reneging on its privacy policies, was about to buy one of the most successful wearables company in the world —after Google had repeatedly tried to launch a competing product, only to fail, over and over. Fitbit users give their devices extraordinary access to their sensitive personal details, from their menstrual cycles to their alcohol (...)

This week, De Correspondent’s Dimitri Tokmetzis and I revisited one of the key questions in the debate about contact-tracing apps – how much data should they collect ? While tech companies want to limit the amount of information governments can harvest from iPhone and Android users, health agencies say they need data to understand how the virus spreads. But with Google and Apple controlling the majority of the world’s phones, these giants have been able to set the terms for contact-tracing (...)

How to stop Instagram from tracking everything you do
▻https://www.wired.co.uk/article/instagram-story-ads-privacy-delete

There are some things you can do to limit Facebook’s web of surveillance, but not much Instagram is a massive money-maker. Parent company Facebook doesn’t release figures on how much money the division makes but reports claim it generated $20 billion in advertising revenue in 2019 alone – that’s a quarter of Facebook’s entire yearly revenue. Or, to put it another way, more money than YouTube makes for parent company Alphabet. At the heart of Instagram’s financial success is two things : (...)

Your Android phone likely includes records of everywhere you go alongside most, if not all, of your digital communication and Internet search history. Although it’s impossible to have perfect privacy on any smartphone, there are plenty of settings you can adjust to minimize the amount of data that companies collect about you. Being privacy aware on an operating system run by Google—a company that makes money in part by mining data about its users—might seem like a silly endeavor, but the (...)

In many countries, contact-tracing apps were presented as a precondition to end lockdowns.
