I wish anonymous metadata and source code was open! This kind of software has potential to positively impact society but not when it cannot be freely audited and debated by the public empowered to vote for changes to it.
I suspect there is a storm brewing with proprietary government software. Social services like child endangerment checkups, child placements, etc. sentencing recommendations, as mentioned predictive policing, watchdog/oversight departments , and so much more!
These tools can empower us or enslave us and a big step toward empowerment is the open source community to push for open source and open data for software augmented government functions!
