Home Quarantine (Poland)
From Business Insider:
- Poland is making people send selfies to prove they're quarantining correctly
- On March 20 the Polish government announced the release of a new app called "Home Quarantine." The point of the app is to make sure people who are supposed to be quarantining themselves for 14 days stay in place.
- To use the app first you have to register a selfie, it then sends periodic requests for geo-located selfies. If the user fails to comply within 20 minutes, the police will be alerted.
- "People in quarantine have a choice: either receive unexpected visits from the police, or download this app," a spokesman for Poland's Digital Ministry said.
