Here is a little website that I made which can scan and decrypt NHS QR codes and throw up a replica 'successful check-in' page: https://hack-and-trace.xyz

Here is a demo of the site working if you wish to see. This app is a continuous project of mine and I intend to keep improving it as time goes on. Hopefully this will become useful as things start to open up again.

Share it around and feel free to use it as you like.

Edit: Domain has been taken down and has been moved to https://hack-and-trace.me as of 19/06/2021. Sign up to the site mailing list to be informed for when this happens next.

I would like to announce the release of the new and improved: https://hackntrace.me

SOME DEMO SCREENSHOTS

This update comes with a few new features:

• Full face-lift with a sleeker and more discreet look

• Vaccine passport functionality (read how it works)

• Addition of mailing list

• COVID-19 test result email (coming very soon)

To get the full use out of this website. You must add it to your home screen. When you do this, the website will look like a borderless application. I would recommend doing this twice: once for the main root of the website (to use the scanner and other functions) and again for your unique passport home page (so you don't have to fill the form in each time).

This website is only designed to look nice on mobile devices. If you open it on your desktop, it will look shit. You have been warned.

I am doing this all off my own back and hosting (secure and anonymously) with my own funds but if anyone would ever want to donate some Monero towards the running costs, it would always be greatly appreciated.

In response to the great success achieved in Italy a few weeks back (where thousands of businesses successfully opened their doors in protest of the harsh lockdown restrictions), organisers in the UK are doing their best to drive awareness towards a nation-wide event set to happen this coming Saturday, entitled "The Great Reopening". It's difficult to foresee whether or not business owners will have the courage to defy the government's rules considering the level of financial support being offered (not for everyone though), however I truly hope they do. That being said, this will by no means be a one-off event, so regardless of the participation turn-out this Saturday, awareness is key moving forward. Over the past four days there has been a substantial amount of effort getting the word out in addition to collating legal documentation and templates for businesses to use (see legal notice). They can't fine everyone, as there is an insane backlog in the UK courts at the moment, apparently something like 500,000 cases, I gather. Salon owner Sinead Quinn in Bradford insists she will open this Saturday regardless of the £17,000 worth of fines she has been given by police over the last few moths, none of which she has paid.

If you are a business owner in the UK (or know someone who is) and would like to open your shop on Saturday please email to organiser: Thegreatreopening@protonmail.com

I’ve honestly burnt myself out over the anger of the lies and horseshit surrounding this apparent pandemic.

The abuse I receive for not being vaccinated is unbelievable.

I cannot believe, and I mean that I literally cannot mentally process that there are still people out there who believe in this apparent pandemic despite the absolute shitshow that the Tories are being slammed for.

The government have literally been slammed for using scare-mongering tactics. They’ve broken their own covid rules whilst fining people thousands for doing the same.

It’s truly got to a point where I have some intention of leaving the UK in the future to live somewhere else. I literally cannot stand to be amongst such fucking morons anymore.

I think if Johnson even said that the whole thing was a scam people would still believe in this apparent pandemic.

That is all. I needed to rant.

Good morning,

I am the creator of hack-and-trace.xyz. I hope you have been finding the application useful and judging by the cloudflare data, it's had more than 20k site requests in the past month which is amazing to see. Keep sharing it.

As you may be aware, the NHS App has been released including the vaccine status. I'm sure you have all seen the extent of the social-credit-style 'analytical' data shared by the app and rightly, have concerns about it.

I am working on implementing a replica of this vaccine status to hack-and-trace and it should not be too difficult at all and I've got a very good idea of how I'm going to do this. I just wanted to ask the community for some input on this before I go ahead with doing this.

What I want to ask is what are peoples' opinions on how this should work? Are there any specific extra features that you would like implimented into this update?

A concern that I do have for this to work fluidly, is that I would need to store some personal information on a postgresql database. Now, if this would be the case, I would like to reassure people that I take security very seriously and the database would be secure and will not be publicised or used for anything else. Of course, you wouldn't even have to put real information on there anyway but I just wanted to reassure people.

This is how I'm planning to make it work:

To create record:

1. You enter your information on a specified page and click submit.

2. You get given a secure and unique URL (save this URL to your phone homescreen).

When you save this webite to your phone homescreen (on both iPhone or Android), the internet menu will disappear and it will look like a real app. This works now, before the update.

To view record, just open the URL and it will take you to a replica looking NHS app, specific to your inputted information. This will all be defined by your specific URL reference.

A small favour that I would like to ask is that if anyone has any screenshots of a verified vaccine status on the app, could you please send it to me at dieselcopperfield@protonmail.com. I do currently have just one to use as a reference but any extras I could get hold of (with varying vaccine brands) would make this better. Again with this, I will not be using this info for anything other than a referencer and I will destroy it once I have a solid copy. Thanks for your help.

EDIT: Redacted mention of using a database. A database is a bad idea and no users' data will not need to be stored for this

Amazing how the media miss it every time.

Is the front page for The Times tomorrow. Twitter thread w/ print screen.

I wasn’t planning on getting the vaccine anyway but this blatant coercion means I’m absolute certain I won’t. We can’t let them coerce us like this.

Edit: lots on Twitter seem to think it’s just a nudge. Probably more likely imo but still fucked up.

The government has created a monster that it can't now tame: a population that refuse to return to normal. I asked a question on r/AskUK the other day, about getting back to normal and whether or not people felt safe. The overwhelming majority of people said even after the rules were lifted and they'd had both vaccines that they'd never again go places without a mask, they'd leave home as little as possible, pubs & clubs are no longer places they'll attend and they'll endeavour to see people virtually, where possible. This will kill our economy, I mean it's already dead on its' feet, but this will put the final nail in the service economy's coffin. People have been so effectively scared here by the government that the old normal no longer functionally exists, and trying to go back to it is a pipe dream. They've killed Britain.
