A lot of people in academia are mission driven - they don't care about the money, they care about the application of their work to benefit humanity and don't want to exist as a cog in a private corporation's profits. I think

That PR article doesn't answer the questions, and raises more: - Why didn't SPD commission an independent study? - What kinds of crimes were studied? Is this catching jaywalkers or homicides? - Only mentions arrests. What about co

Doubt that anyone is concerned with a random person catching a portion of your face while they're taking a picture in public. Instead, it's opposition to being tracked over time by a centralized entity like a private company or go

"We" as a species with common interests like "not eradicating ourselves through violence."

That's a false choice. By investing in weapons instead of diplomacy, we've created this world of tit-for-tat violence. We can dismantle it too, it's not necessary to continue escalating until we exterminate our species.
