How to get information from the public?
The Spanish Government has developed and expanded two main applications in this state of alarm. DataCOVID-19, created with the objective of receiving information of 40 million mobiles, to analyze "the impact of social distancing measures".
Moncloa has recalled that the application works according to current legislation and "does not violate people's privacy", as the data obtained from citizens' mobiles are "aggregated and anonymous".
In the Spanish State, as in most European countries, the area is divided into areas covered by mobile telephone antennas. Therefore, when moving, the phone connects to another antenna and thus, without the need for GPS, you can know from which area it has moved.
As usual, multinational telecommunications companies have offered their collaboration to Governments for data collection. Proof of this is that Apple and Google have come together to develop an app that uses Bluetooth for mobile phones. The goal, they have explained, is "to make it easier for governments to know with whom citizenship meets to cope with the expansion of the coronavirus."
