Contact tracing has grown in popularity as a promising solution to theCOVID-19 pandemic. The benefits of automated contact tracing are two-fold.Contact tracing promises to reduce the number of infections by being able to:1) systematically identify all of those that have been in contact with someonewho has had COVID; and, 2) ensure those that have been exposed to the virus donot unknowingly infect others. "COVI" is the name of a recent contact tracingapp developed by Mila and was proposed to help combat COVID-19 in Canada. Theapp was designed to inform each individual of their relative risk of beinginfected with the virus, which Mila claimed would empower citizens to makeinformed decisions about their movement and allow for a data-driven approach topublic health policy; all the while ensuring data is safeguarded fromgovernments, companies, and individuals. This article will provide a criticalresponse to Mila's COVI White Paper. Specifically, this article will discuss:the extent to which diversity has been considered in the design of the app,assumptions surrounding users' interaction with the app and the app's utility,as well as unanswered questions surrounding transparency, accountability, andsecurity. We see this as an opportunity to supplement the excellent riskanalysis done by the COVI team to surface insights that can be applied to othercontact- and proximity-tracing apps that are being developed and deployedacross the world. Our hope is that, through a meaningful dialogue, we canultimately help organizations develop better solutions that respect thefundamental rights and values of the communities these solutions are meant toserve.
