At our university we always resisted to the plan of the security
department to track our movement between buildings. It was refused by
rector office and deans for decades.
Now it is there: when entering any building one has register itself by
its electronic card (there are brand new readers). On leaving one has
to de-register in the same way. It has been explained as a measure to
battle the COVID-19. I assume that when the emergency will be done them
these devices will stay here.
