Have there been public statements by #Purism or #Pine64 in relation to the #COVID19apps https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/COVID-19_apps ?
People who are forced by their governments to install a COVID-19 privacy-violating app (aka "privacy-preserving") may prefer to install these on a #Librem5 / #PinePhone. Installing the app would be less risky with a hardware bluetooth kill switch (Librem5) or at least a software bluetooth kill switch, rather than with a GAFAM-updated-OS.
