on March 3, 2021 at 1:12 am Google and Apple recently launched the Exposure Notification System; a contact tracing tool to understand the chain of Coronavirus and stop continuous spreading. The Exposure Notification System has been designed with the help of public health authorities. The app is not meant to track location or be used for identity sharing. Phones should give three alerts, allowing Utahns the choice to opt into the system. USU student Kimmy McClellan said she hasn’t turned it on yet. “I would consider turning it on. I think it could be a good thing, catching cases that we might not otherwise. If information is kept confidential, and not used for data mining, I don’t see a problem. I am a student so I’m exposed to many people, so it could be a useful tool to help protect me but also prevent me from unknowingly spreading it to others.”
