“It’s not the official UN application that’s the problem; it’s the one developed by the Egyptian government that bothers us,” explained Katharina Rall, senior environment researcher at Human Rights Watch, who participated in the NGO’s investigation into the repressive measures put in place by Egypt ahead of COP27.
The Egyptian app, which was rolled out on October 24, is supposed to “improve the COP27 experience for all participants”. It allows users to manage flight and hotel reservations, get information about Covid-19, and provides agendas for on-site meetings as well as a calendar of negotiations and roundtables.
The all-in-one tool has already been downloaded by more than 5,000 delegates and visitors (out of a total of 44,000 registered participants) who were probably reassured by the fact that this Egyptian application is promoted on the official UN website for the COP27. The UN imprimatur “appears very problematic to us, and we have the right to wonder why there was no verification beforehand”, said Rall.
‘Unlimited trust certificate’ with access to all
Shortly after the app was rolled out last month, cybersecurity experts realised that it was “a cartoon super-villain of an app”, as Gennie Gebhart from the Electronic Frontier Foundation put it in an interview with the British daily, The Guardian.
