Talk about over sensationalizing...

They are not arresting people for being in the "wrong place at the wrong time". He said the arrests were for criminals who breached bail agreements etc. Lots of bail agreements state that you can't be carrying certain types of tools if you are a B&E offender etc. They are not going to arrest average Joe for wearing gloves on a cold night in an area where there was a "crime prediction".

This doesn't even seem that high tech or new. Police departments have been using predictive analysis for a very long time... Even before computers they used crime trends to determine where their officers should be dispatched. It sounds like they have just improved on the tech/algorithms.

I like your reporting for the most part but I really think you have a biased opinion on this one. I can obviously see how this type of tech could be abused.. but do you really not see that this could be used for good?
