translated from Spanish: A former deputy criticizes the new CuidAR app and recommends Mi Argentina

In the last announcements of President Alberto Fernández, it was advised that those who cannot do their work from home are allowed to leave. However, they must do this by downloading and registering, mandatory, in the CuidAR mobile application.This generated a lot of controversy, because this app requires the user to allow access to the location, in real time, to the Government. Former Deputy Silvana Giudici was one of those who made the most of the news.

The circulation certificate and QR code are obtained from the MI ARGENTINA application. This App created in the change management does not use the user’s mobile location. Personal identity data is safeguarded and validated by Renaper.— Silvana Giudici (@SilvanaGiudici)

In a short thread posted on Twitter, Giudici criticizes the operation of this application and compares it with Mi Argentina, one of very similar features created by Cambiar.What the ex-owner of ENACOM claimed, is that Mi Argentina already “provides sufficient health control to the authorities”. On the other hand, he stated that he did not understand why President Alberto Fernández “are stubborn with the mandatory CuidAr app”.

For this new phase of quarantine and the new movement restrictions the permit of movement and the QR of Mi Argentina provides sufficient health control to the authorities. The obstinacy in the obligatory of the Care App is inexplicable.— Silvana Giudici (@SilvanaGiudici)

In addition to the fear of “cyberpatrullaje”, what those who oppose the mandatory use of the app are hidden in the same Constitution.Remember on Twitter the content of Article 14, which grants, among other things, the right to “enter, stay, transit and leave the Argentine territory”.
