This article is very strange.

> Sidewalk Labs, which provides urban technology infrastructure, is planning a 4.9-acre smart city along Toronto’s harbor front, a project that has already faced opposition from locals over concerns of data privacy.

> [...]

> Sidewalk Labs outlined its project for a light railway transit, 2,500 homes where 40 percent would be below market price, and a tall-timber factory they project will create 4,000 jobs.

So is it a "smart city" or just a light railway, homes, and a factory? If it is the latter how does that invade privacy? If it is the former then the article is super light on details.

This article is just all over the place. Hard to form any kind of opinion on this without more facts.
