As COVID19 has forced society deeper into the digital space, we must question to what extent our current conceptions of privacy will remain relevant. Certainly, some might argue that the move is a temporary one and that society will return to the pre-virus status quo when a vaccine is developed or an effective therapeutic is discovered. I am not as hopeful. Now, more than ever, I rely on my personal tracking device, as well as other devices, to complete almost any task, mundane or extraordinary. I now live in cyberspace where I order groceries, communicate with family, see a doctor, and even obtain a legal degree. While all of these things could have been done online prior to the virus and in fact, would have been seen as a luxury, now there is no other way to accomplish these tasks and as such, my own autonomy as viewed through my ability to decide with whom I share personal data is essentially terminated. Technology has a way of expanding to meet needs and desires. But once it fills those needs, it rarely, if ever, contracts.
