People in San Francisco Are Mad That a New App Lets You Spy on Bars to See How Busy They Are
Not everybody is thrilled that app users will be able to see their drunkest moments.

So San Francisco just invented the webcam? (Btw, Google Maps already shows how busy establishments are.)
Doesn’t Google Maps show trends instead of live numbers?
Edit: I used “numbers” because I wasn’t sure how to end my question. Stats? Values?
It has both.
It also doesn't have numbers, it has unlabeled columns.
It wouldn't surprise me if the way it determines how busy places are would be considered a bigger privacy violation than these webcams (which only show people in their areas while Google somehow can report on how busy many arbitrary locations are vs their usual).
"Busy", "More busy than usual",... Not absolute numbers.
Depends on the area (maybe), but I think it can do either.
