How Google's Sidewalk Labs has outmaneuvered Toronto in its bid to build a "smart city"

From the article: “… Dan Doctoroff, Sidewalk Labs’ CEO…” This is a lead-up to the ultimate Doctorow vs Doctoroff match-up. Winner gets the sidewalk.

But seriously, both the city and google seem to want this proposal and deal to be covered as little as possible, and they have gotten their way so far. The only local discussion was about privacy, and that got very minimal coverage. This linked article is a good start to this discussion, even though it’s a late start.
