Microsoft Patents ‘Avoid Ghetto’ Feature For GPS

Quote:A GPS device is used to find shortcuts and avoid traffic, but Microsoft’s patent states that a route can be plotted for pedestrians to avoid an “unsafe neighborhood or being in an open area that is subject to harsh temperatures.”Created for mobile phones, the technology uses the latest crime statistics and weather data and includes them when calculating a route.

what if you live in the ghetto. does microsoft have a 'move now while you can' feature, or does your phone constantly beep "unsafe".
what if you plot a course home, do you just drive around in circles or does the feature crash and kill your iphone.
that's pretty embarrassing. you invite people over for a dinner party, they punch your address on the car gps and red flags and sirens start popping all over the place on their screen.
another microsoft failure. they should stick to fixing their crappy, virus prone software like windows instead of trying to incite more class warfare.
eeny, meeny, miny, moe, Catch the tiger by the toe. If it hollers let him go, eeny, meeny, miny, moe, you are it!
not because you're dirty, not because you're clean, just because you kissed a girl behind the magazine.
