People in Moscow are getting wrongfully fined by a quarantine app that demands selfies

The app sends push notifications to demand the selfies, but sometimes sends them in the middle of the night when users are asleep. It then hands them an automatic fine when they fail to respond. According to HRW, doctors were encouraged to make anyone displaying symptoms of COVID-19 to sign a "quarantine notification," which says in the fine print that they are obligated to download the app while quarantining. "Refusal to sign the quarantine notification may result in forced hospitalization," HRW reports.

Another problem is that the app seems to be quite buggy in general, freezing when users try to send the selfie.

“In the case of the Moscow app if you fail to respond, you automatically get a fine of 4,000 rubles ($56). Unfortunately the app seems quite trigger-happy.” Ping thespybrief chey_cobb
