Mark Zuckerberg said Facebook isn't among the group of tech giants in talks about giving the US government location data from phones to track the coronavirus outbreak. The denial comes after a Tuesday report by the Washington Post about the White House and the Centers for Disease Control tapping tech companies.
In a press call Wednesday, the Facebook CEO denied the report, which has since been backed up by coverage from NBC News and The Wall Street Journal. Zuckerberg said the reports were "largely overstated" and denied that the company was in discussions to give the US government any location data.
