Wondering why the majority of Canadians aren't using the #CovidAlert app? Dr. Jennie Phillips' interview with @mattfharris sheds some light on the issue. Thank you @CFRAOttawa sharing our research with your audience!

Must-watch @CTVNews interview w/ @drchangelove about the factors deterring Canadians from downloading CA's COVID Alert app. "Accessibility and inclusion challenges . . . along with privacy concerns are deterring users from downloading the app."

Thanks @CTVNews & @MrRossAndersen!

Brilliant report from @citizenlab! The @citizenlab's security and privacy analysis of TikTok and Douyin confirms with our digital contact tracing research findings - popular social networking apps collect far more data than Canada's #COVIDAlert app.
