The Australian government is testing an app to enforce its quarantine rules. The state will text people at random times, and thereafter they will have 15 minutes to take a picture of their face and text the government. Should they fail, the local police department will be sent to follow up in person.
The government of South Australia, one of the country’s six states, developed and is now testing an app as Orwellian as any in the free world to enforce its quarantine rules.
Returning travelers quarantining at home will be forced to download an app that combines facial recognition and geolocation.
The state will text them at random times, and thereafter they will have 15 minutes to take a picture of their face in the location where they are supposed to be, reported The Atlantic.
Should they fail, the local police department will be sent to follow up in person.
ok.. just askin
but if you don’t take a picture of yourself.. how will they know who to look for ?
if its tracking the phone , likely.. than ditch the dam thing
or even better
dont take the picture , dont send it , wait for them to show and kill em all , yeah second option is the way to go
If they are texting you, they already know who you are. Sending them the picture is just heel, sit, lie down, roll over.
Bet those Aussies are wishing they hadn’t given up their guns, as they are being reduced to dogs.
Wow….And Australian Sky news constantly mocks us out for putting up with demented Joe Biden. Maybe they should focus on their own government instead of ours. Just sayin.
Australian Sky News is “right wing” controlled opposition media for “do nothing” dolts. ‘Nuf said.
Yep. There’s one in every country.
And folks wonder why I don’t have a cell phone…. and why I cover my microphone and camera on top of the laptop that takes a picture, whatever it’s called (Skype?)…and don’t use ZOOM!
