If it’s possible for a concept to have fifteen minutes of fame, “metadata” had its own a few weeks ago, when it was revealed that Verizon was passing the stuff off en masse to the National Security Agency. In that case, we learned, the information being handed over wasn’t the actual content of phone calls but rather all the stuff surrounding it–the metadata of who was calling whom, from where, and for how long. Many were quick to point out that this seemingly innocuous information could actually reveal quite a bit about individual subscribers. These maps, however, show us how Big Metadata can be used for decidedly less nefarious ends. Like redrawing cities based on which neighborhoods use Android and which use iPhone.
