I don't know, Charlie - yes, these tools can facilitate genocide, but we've shown ourselves to be pretty good at the genocide thing with a lot less sophisticated technology.
The next time we have a genocide, we'll use a lot of different tools to do it, maybe even iPhone applications and Facebook data, but I have a hard time believing the same horror wouldn't have occurred absent this information.
The problem isn't the app, and the problem isn't the behavioral targeting industry that encourages others to share. The problem is us. When one group of us makes up our minds to kill another group of us, it's going to happen whatever the technology at hand.
