He discounts the importance of figuring out how modern election data shops work (and what tools they use/build) with regards to elections, which may be important for us to fight these firms down the road and build laws against unscrupulous data collection. The mechanical details definitely matter here, and that can be found by looking at source code. I don't necessarily agree that gizmodo should have led with tying this open repository of code to AIQ/SCL/CA to Bannon/Trump/Russia. Finding the tools and explaining what they do was more important given this was found today. It's not like they can't write follow-up articles which explain the larger issues. |
