This is such a dark use of tech. Involuntary using people&#x27;s phones and fta it says data goes mostly to hedge funds. Then the kicker was at the bottom:<p>&quot;In September, as Hurricane Florence churned toward the Carolina coast Thasos watched evacuation zones and found that in well-to-do census blocks, 65% of the people fled, while only 39% left poor areas. Such information could inform disaster response or infrastructure spending, yet it might also have commercial value. “You might look at that and say, ‘Gosh, I could price insurance differently,’ ” Mr. Pentland said.&quot;<p>So they&#x27;re not even interested in savings lives so much as pricing insurance. Fantastic.
