The before image shows a large intersection with lots of space for cars, while the after image shows a much smaller intersection with a green, continuous sidewalk for pedestrians.

• I hate to write a piece just saying Someone Is Wrong On The Internet. But Reid Blackman’s The Signal App and the Danger of Privacy at All Costs (in the NYTimes, forsooth) is not just wrong but dangerously misleading. I haven't seen a compact explainer on why, so here goes. (remote)
