A group of UK privacy and security experts have signed an open letter setting out a number of concerns over the NHSX coronavirus contact-tracing app that is due to be released in the UK within the next few weeks.

The concerns centre on the risk that data collected by the app might be put to less health-conscious surveillance purposes at a later date. “We urge that the health benefits of a digital solution be analysed in depth by specialists from all relevant academic disciplines, and sufficiently proven to be of value to justify the dangers involved,” the letter reads.
