Microsoft 'Avoid Ghetto' App Sparks Controversy (VIDEO) | |
|
||
| Time: 12:00 EST/17:00 GMT | News Source: Huffington Post | Posted By: Robert Stein | ||
|
Microsoft is being slammed for its new feature that some have dubbed the "avoid ghetto" app, although it still does not have an official name. The app is meant to help anyone traveling on foot avoid bad weather, tough terrain and unsafe neighborhoods, NPR reports. It uses a combination of information from maps, weather reports, crime statistics and demographics to give users a comprehensive route recommendation. But while some say it is an innocent GPS system that features important information, others criticize it for reinforcing negative assumptions about certain neighborhoods and the people that live there. | ||
