The Coming Storm

Short audible original book that discusses the benefits of public data. I would have given this higher marks if it had been a little more in depth. I think there is definitely room for a full Michael Lewis-style book on the topic. Another issue is that he took the opportunity to politicize the issue, making it look like conservatives in general are all against public data and mining it for the public good. At the same time, he didn't discuss at all any potential pitfalls of public data mining, such as how it might impact our individual liberties or how it might otherwise be misused.

Interesting topic, not fully explored (very unlike M.L. in that regard)

Shocking insight to a portion of the government I had next to zero previous knowledge.
