I made a doctors appointment a while back for completely unrelated Covid ailment. They told me if would have to be a remote appointment, and that I had to install WhatsApp on my phone to do it. I read the privacy statement really close, and the app said that my my installed the app, I agree to share all my contacts in my address book with WhatsApp.
When my contacts gave me their number, I do not recall them giving me the right to share their number with anyone else. And it pissed me off that this damn app would presume that I had the right to share something which did not belong to me. I told the Dr's office I would not agree to install this app. They said, then we can't make an appointment.
I have not faith in the medical profession any more. To me it's like a return to the dark ages. I had a far better doctor back in the 60's and 70's, than I've every had since, and got much better medical care.

They love asking for consent of our "never gonna come" enslavement. God Wins, we win. .win
Most general practixioners do not do better than my momma did at diagnosing and treating sickness.
We really didn't go to docs except tonset bones and get stitches.
With the blank burner phones do you just change out the sim cards?
