MP from Bright Armenia questioned the reasonability of the hot button  bill

ArmInfo. The MP from "Bright Armenia" Armen Yeghiazaryan questioned the feasibility of the hot button bill, according to which law enforcement officers had the  opportunity to track the location and calls of patients with coronavirus.

According to the party's statement, on April 1, Yeghiazaryan sent his  inquiries to VivaCell-MTS, UCOM and Beeline with a request to provide  information on whether it is possible to determine the exact location  of a mobile phone or smartphone via GPS and triangulation. In  particular, he was interested in whether it is possible to establish  the exact movement of subscribers living on the second, fifth and  fourteenth floors of a 15-storey building in 3D (X, Y, Z) format.  <Based on the answers received, it becomes clear that it is  impossible to establish the exact location, or the deviation is from  20 to 100 meters. In fact, the bill cannot solve the task, in  connection with which the Government should give explanations  regarding its adoption>, the statement said.

To recall, according to the bill, the Police and the NSS, through a  special system, are able to track the location and calls of patients  with coronavirus. This, in turn, will help in establishing the circle  of contacting people and their timely isolation if necessary.  Subsequently, all received data is subject to destruction. According  to the Ministry of Justice, the law does not provide for wiretapping  and access to text messages.  The possibilities for establishing  geolocation provided by the bill are valid only in the event of an  emergency declared in connection with the threat of an epidemic.
