This has been a controversial week. First of all: will you let facial recognition programs track your children at school? A technology dad is turning this technology into reality. He started a pilot project in children's primary school. Its goal is to strengthen security, but this technology also raises worrying ethical issues. In addition, the scooter company Bird seems to plan to launch a service in Seattle to advertise a large number of jobs in the city. Although the city's laws prohibit renting free-floating scooters, this has not stopped the company from expanding into new markets in the past.
GeekWire also launched a unique project this week, cooperating with SeaHomelesscampaign, a media organization in Seattle, to report homelessness. In order to answer readers' questions, we investigated how other cities struggle with homelessness and what Seattle can learn from it.
