Alyssa Rosenzweig: Fun and Games with Exposure Notifications [Ed: Who would want this mass surveillance on a GNU/Linux system anyway?]
Wait – phones? Android and iOS only? Can’t my Debian laptop participate? It has a recent Bluetooth chip. What about phones running GNU/Linux distributions like the PinePhone or Librem 5?
Exposure Notifications breaks down neatly into three sections: a Bluetooth layer, some cryptography, and integration with local public health authorities. Linux is up to the task, via BlueZ, OpenSSL, and some Python.
[...]
All in all, we end up with a Linux implementation of Exposure Notifications functional in Ontario, Canada. What’s next? Perhaps supporting contact tracing systems elsewhere in the world – patches welcome. Closer to home, while functional, the aesthetics are not (yet) anything to write home about – perhaps we could write a touch-based Linux interface for mobile Linux interfaces like Plasma Mobile and Phosh, maybe even running it on a Android flagship flashed with postmarketOS to go full circle.
