Making art out of tracing was a fancy for us as school students. Tracing helped to track every movement pattern we needed to move or follow along. To trace meant to track the findings and use them as a tool in drawing the "big picture".
Apps being instructed by the Governments to be downloaded due to COVID19 outbreak is not just a novel virus, but also a novel idea to trace, to follow, to track and monitor our movements and the patterns we leave behind.
As we remain concerned for the safety of our loved ones downloading the COVID19 tracking apps seems to be a logic decision, not beyond the removal of lockdown in respective countries. You are sharing a whole lot of data thinking of it as a containment strategy which it is, only to contain our future by making the tracing transition from containment strategy towards a mandatory national protocol seamless. Pray it's not the case to be. Already our private lives are getting lesser privacy than we are accustomed to, any further loss of it would make us feel oppressed.
It will not be wrong to say that such measures play an important role in national security and also create an atmosphere of "vacuum fear". One tends to become more aware of their environment, surroundings and habitat. You begin to respect nature with more care, either by a personal choice or due to peer pressure. Any form of uncivilized activity is being watched as such an act could harm another life, so you become more aware of following the norms. You understand that you must protect the environment from harm because it's not just about you but millions of lives that need to be respected, failure to do so could result in catastrophe like situation. You become aware of all the products and things that are harmful to our society, living beings, ocean, hills, rivers, seas, mountains and soil and start to replace them with more planet friendly choices. This is when you act towards safeguarding the hospitable nature of your planet Earth. Sooner or later, millions following on these footsteps create an atmosphere where northern and southern Ice caps begin to regain lost ground and global warming is reduced. That moment is far, but achievable. Not impossible but a daily effort, starts with conscious choices in our lifestyle.
The not-yet-mandatory Apps will play a global role in strategic surveillance of our personal lives. Though they may not see you, but tracing you will become a walk in the park.
So much being done for an intelligent layout of strategic tracking. It is not a one man show. The layout blueprint was designed much ahead before you could even fathom the process of this methodology. COVID19 only made the implementation relatively easier. What if you got to know all this was already planned by global leaders for the future of our mankind? What if the 2nd October Bollywood celebrity gathering was to take into confidence the social media influencers, an indirect promoters of artificial intelligence? You must brace yourself of the aftermath. It will not come as a surprise if the ulterior motives of the leaders are revealed, which will be about carrying your phone as an access to work place, departmental stores, conferences, basically everywhere. It will not be just for their safety and security purposes, but to know your history and background.
There is no going back now. If you think you can, Return to the basics. Nature will protect you. Give into its bliss. Only if you have the courage to follow it and never look back.
