Ep287: Is the LDS Covenant Path App Sharing Your Personal Data?

The Covenant Path narrative has become a major way to track the milestone that members of the LDS must reach or attain to fully participate in the LDS church. A new app lets multiple people from the ward and mission watch and track stats on new converts as they attend meetings, get temple recommends, pay tithing, etc. It also identifies friends in the ward who can step in to encourage the new member to move forward on The Covenant Path if they aren't making progress.

What are the potential ramifications of sharing personal data like this? And who exactly can see this data? Mormonish is joined again by Suspicious Might and Unoriginal Jim to explore this new app.


(This is the new episode we tried to air last week but due to a tech glitch (ok, my fault) we accidentally aired a previous episode with the same guests on a similar topic. Thanks for understanding!)
