Zuckerberg: Facebook isn't sharing user location data to track coronavirus - Business Insider

Facebook is not in talks with the US government about sharing users' smartphone location data to help fight the spread of the coronavirus, CEO Mark Zuckerberg told reporters on a conference call Wednesday.

Zuckerberg's denial came after The Washington Post reported on Tuesday that Facebook, Google, and other tech companies were in talks with the government about a creating a system that would use location data toand to see whether social distancing guidelines were actually being followed.

You can bet Trump attempted to collect phone data and Zuckerberg would have agreed had they not been exposed.

SAI I wouldn’t trust this guy to hold my place in line at Whole Foods let alone tell the truth about data. Facebook

거부했다.네요.

Who cares if it helps contain and end this thing.

Oh, now everyone is worried about privacy.

Comment: 03192020 COVID19 The health management of the coronavirus pandemic is the first priority. Effective and fast health management tracking contacts of coronavirus infected and coronavirus hotspots requires location data. Privacy is temporary of secondary importance. PHD

Too late

Tracking a public health threat actually sounds like a smart idea. Thats why Zuckerberg is denying it 😂 berg.....sounds very German. Does he like hamburgers?

Aren't they already doing things much worse than that? 😂

He really does look like Data, doesn't he.
