However, those who are skeptical of smart cities argue that the large amount of data that is collected could easily be abused or fall into the wrong hands, violating the privacy of city-dwellers. This volume offers a wide range of perspectives on the potential high-tech future of cities." -- $c provided by the publisher. 521 1 $a 14-17. 830 0 $a Scientific American explores big ideas. 941 $a 2 952 $l FYPI314 $d 20240202021707.0 952 $l TCPG826 $d 20231102010805.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=21D199D8794511EEAB8C8A0C42ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
