Coronavirus contact tracing apps aren’t worth the health risk to Black and Latinx people: Given the current social climate — in which issues of inequity are cojoined with a public health crisis — we particularly push back on the unmitigated trust given to companies to assure us that they will not allow law enforcement to use contact tracing apps for punitive or surveillance purposes, even for apps that do not purport to disclose user identity and location. The stakes are too high, especially at a time when police involvement in the coronavirus pandemic response in Black communities is so much higher than in white communities.
