That’s a horrible way to look at it. There are so many alternative ways to enforce a quarantine / lockdown without having to resort to such invasive things. If you use the justification of “harming society” and “massive suffering and loss of life” you can justify way more than just fighting COVID-19.
Slippery slope aside, why can’t the government merely enforce the curfew by telling citizens not to leave their homes instead of forcing them to take selfies at random intervals? If you don’t comply they send the police to your home. If you don’t comply out of protest, they’ll jail you for your safety, where you’re more likely to catch the disease they’re trying to keep you from catching. Pure insanity.
