Nobody ever checks you entered any information in the book. (again, I would never do that) I really only go to one mall, my local Foodland, a nearby Lotus, and a hospital. In all those places, I do the temperature scan but I do not do the QR code and I don't sign in either. Nobody seems to care. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Traveled for years all over the world with nothing but a little short wave radio to keep in touch with the motherland...... Still got the radio, plan on dumping the phone shortly...... It's sad to say but the amount of friends left in Thailand that are on my contacts list i'd be better off going back to a phone card..... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know what I know because I worked in telecom IT for 12 years. We often received requests from law enforcement to track cell phones and it doesn't matter if the phone was turned off. Text messages can also be monitored by telecom companies with a software application called "Streams Analytical Processing" which was first developed for use by the NSA. Ooooooh yes..... Had a very good school mate who ended up working for GCHQ....... Never owned a telephone, wouldn't touch one....... told me not to own one........

Give for a few street beggars etc the vast majority of Thai’s own a smart phone - I challenge anyone to ask 10 random people waking down the street and not find 10 people with a smart phone in their pocket or handbag. I was ordered by my then girlfriend years ago to buy a phone, which i never wanted and rarely used, in those days it was public phones and phone cards which worked perfectly well, never had so much nightime activity....... The only reason she wanted me to have the phone.......wait for it....... was to find out where i was...... at anytime of the day or night...... I'm going back to dumb phones very shortly.......

SupermarineS6B Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 It's so sad to see Thailand in this way, and this latest act of craziness reminds me of something you would expect from a Monty Python sketch....... They've already killed the tourist industry stone dead, and now they've stood the corpse up and shot it again, just to make sure that it's dead......... I wish their mummys and daddys would come and take them home...... before they do something really serious.... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"..............then that is still exactly the same as the way they would do it with GPS data!" That's what I've been bloody saying! ???? Once the automation is done if ".......someone wants to specifically look where you have been,......." then the manual work is involved!! And....on this scale the amount of that manual work would need more resources than would practically be made available.

John Steinbeck Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 You can have one phone with the app left at home and another one carry with you wherever you go, and this one can be even an old model which is harder to track by any other means.

Well, you could, but maybe if you do, it will then send an alert to the authorities that you've uninstalled it. Then who knows from there..... Could be a potential arrest, fine , or even ban from TH when you depart the country? I guess we'll have to see what laws they put into place Edited February 23, 2021 by Kaopad999 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those that are not can spend high season holidays at home if they wish However Thailand does NOT CARE about LOW western tourist numbers they are after CHINA. Why are people on TV struggling with this? Big bwana no longer calls the shots because the natives no longer worship. Yes I noticed that the natives have many of the same social constructs as a tribe of monkeys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it doesnt need more resources than practically available because they are already doing it and already have those resources. Arguing with intelligent people can be hard, arguing with idiots is bloody impossible! I quite agree with your last comment. The whole point of this is there is no current system and this discussion is about setting up something new! Anyway....done to death methinks.

If they have a covid victim, they wll just look at an automated map for that person which will instantly show all of the places that person has been.

Dagfinnur Traustason Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 So, no more complaining now. ???? You guys must try to see something positive in life. It ain´t so bad! Just download it, install it and let them track you. It´s not like we have some shady business that we need to hide, is it? Just tried myself, but I just been here too long. Don´t have the CoE code.
