The coronavirus is changing the world order as we knew it to date. From large companies that delay the launch of their products, to small companies producing for countries around the world or even alliances never seen as Apple and Google. However, there is still a long way to go to end the virus and return to our lives in a normal way. The latest news about the Coronavirus is that Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC), you have registered the domain AppleCoronavirus.com the same day that it announced the collaboration with Google to design a platform that allows the follow-up of positive cases and the subsequent notification to people who have had contact with those cases.
Apple has not yet updated its new website AppleCoronavirus.com
The WhoIs domain analysis platform allows you to determine who is the owner of a certain domain. The last search made by MacRumors has discovered that Apple bought a new domain: AppleCoronavirus.com. The information that we can obtain in the tracking platform is not much except that the owner is Apple Inc and for doubts it is sent to its mail dedicated to all the domains of the big apple. The website does not yet have any activated or public content.
The most interesting thing about all this is not that a new domain has been registered It was done on the same day that Apple and Google announced their historic collaboration. This collaboration was based on allowing what has been called digital traceability. The common goal of this collaboration is not to reach a joint application.
The goal is to enable iOS and Android devices to detect and share data via Bluetooth to record which people have been in contact with which other people. In this way, integrating this functionality applications could be created by governments or high commissioners, capturing which people have been in contact with an infected person using the technology provided by Google and Apple based on the Bluetooth connection.
