"UT Austin sociologist Sarah Brayne spent 2.5 years conducting field research with the LAPD as they rolled out PredPol, a software tool that is supposed to direct police to places where crime is likely to occur, but which has been shown to send cops out to overpolice brown and poor people at the expense of actual crimefighting.
"Brayne observed and interviewed more than 75 cops to get a picture of how the job of policing is changed by big data-based 'predictive' tools. She found that the tools changed police from a law-enforcement agency to an intelligence agency, concerned more with surveilling people who had not committed a crime than to interdicting or solving crimes in the world."
