CDC Tracked Americans' Cell Phones During Lockdown
Post# of 123691
A Freedom of Information Act request to the CDC revealed documentation that the organization had freely received, and later purchased, location data with the stated intent of monitoring activity in curfew zones or visits to pharmacies.
A review of the documents also disclosed a list of 21 cases where the data could possibly be used, not all of which involved tracking COVID-related efforts.
The data were gathered by SafeGraph after the company's code was installed in a variety of apps commonly downloaded to smartphones.
The data are reportedly anonymized, yet SafeGraph decided to no longer share data location about clinics that offer abortion services, which begs the question "Why?" if the data are anonymous?
Google banned SafeGraph code in the Play Store in July 2021, just six months before four attorneys general filed a lawsuit after a three-year investigation showing Google has been secretly tracking people since 2014
