We ducked this by explaining our wireless design was created for coverage, not security/triangulation, which is true. Many of our buildings do not have the capability to do triagulation because of AP positions. We didn't even get into the privacy item, which was honestly a relief.

Do not click links or open attachments unless you recognize the sender and know the content is safe. Several vendors are trying to monetize COVID… the Wi-Fi part (in my opinion) falls apart fairly quickly in spots when you start talking it through for contact tracing- and usually to do it you may have to buy things you don’t have to round out the system.

They have developed an algorithm to map Wireless users and Covid Contamination. They want to use Wi-Fi logs to establish mapping of Covid Cross Contamination on campus. (I guess linking MAC address to Wi-Fi triangulation) Neat Idea!
