Worth noting loud and clear that this project is obviously non-free despite of being disguised as GPLv3.

definitely, he somehow thinks he can have two incompatible licenses on the same piece of software. Does that invalidate both of them?

#9The author seems to be some kind of weirdo, fantasizing about "totalitarianism" while meaning reasonable Covid measures. The addendum about this renders the software non-free.
I wouldn't trust this software, as much as I wouldn't trust software from QAnon, Putin or North Korea.

If you receive a GPLv3 licensed application from someone else who tried to add additional restrictions, then you can just ignore them, sure. However, this comes straight from the author, so what you actually get here are two conflicting rules given by the copyright holder. I'm afraid this can not be considered free unless a relevant jurisdiction's court judges otherwise.
