Any of the OT members hear about this map?

Its been making it rounds on social media.
Its basically an app that has an in base map in different areas around the US, that specifically locates certin "parts of a city" that tends to be noisy.
And it gives you the option to avoid that area.

People are upset about it.


Personally, Im torn on the subject.

Why?

At what point do rational people quit catering to the irrational?

That is retarded.

For what reason would you have an opposition to this?

It was a couple of years ago that a guy made an app that helped tourists and drivers avoid driving through high crime areas. It used publicly available crime stats to do so. It was pulled from the App Store for being RACIST!!!!

Of course, the people sky screaming about it refused to admit that they were tacitly admitting that the high crime areas were therefore the black areas.

Elon should just integrate this into X since that's about the only place left with a modicum of common sense

Used to be when you looked at a Zillow listing house hunting you could click for crime stats for said neighborhood. That’s gone away. I wonder why?

I'm assuming it does not filter out white noise.

If you think about it, you cannot opt out of Pedo Free Zones either.

‘Peace and quiet’ is not some kind of wildly unreasonable expectation and it’s violation is very often perpetuated by self-centered, low-IQ individuals…

Any person that gets "upset" that any other person would make a sound rational decision that could impact their peace of mind, property and more importantly personal safety and LIFE. Can go frick themselves, th the vast majority are white Karen's living in 99% white upper class neighborhoods.

Well, according to the race pimps, AWFLs and Antifa goons it is, along with keeping your grass mowed, being on time for work, and engaging in outdoor activities like birdwatching and hiking. Everything wholesome and decent is “steeped in white supremacy.”

I spent five minutes on the website playing around.

Link to Peace and Quiet Website

It has negative categories tied to each geographical area that bring down the ratings of an area

The categories include

Section 8 Housing
Violent Crime
Methadone
Halfway House
Popeyes/Churches

My area scores low because of Popeyes, boost mobile, and Waffle House


ETA: others include beauty supply stores, dollar general, check casing and payday loan stores, and coin laundries.
