How do you know what data is relevant? Ey did the right thing by not sharing the data.



They study high traffic density, so by definition, irrelevant data is data where traffic is under a certain density, which would automatically exclude private areas (homes, driveways, etc).


Ah, unexplained downvotes on what I believe is a reasonable point I make...

At the very least, if data cannot be made anonymous, and can so easily be associated to persons, then this is an argument that they should have never collected it without my consent in the first place. This would be an invasion of my privacy.
