WeareData goes live, provides publicly available data for Berlin, London and Paris

If you remember a few days back Ubisoft launched the following website (http://wearedata.watchdogs.com/), related to its upcoming open-world action game Watch Dogs set in Chicago, wherein the CtOS monitoring system is manipulated by the protagonist to utilise/spy on/intervene/hack etc as he sees fit. Now the website has gone live, and it appears to be one which allows users to access real-time data viewable via a 3D mapping system for the cities and inhabitants of Berlin (Germany), London (UK) and Paris (France).

What this means is that you can view information such as public transport schedules; communications networks such as WiFi hotspots and internet relay; urban infrastructure such as ATM’s, traffic lights, public toilets and CCTV’s, as well as social media activities by locals with their public posts on networks such as Facebook, Instagram and Twitter. Furthermore, one can also view regionalised demographic-related data unemployment and crime rates, with Ubisoft stating that the system is an attempt an portraying the reality of the hyper-connected world, but what may creep you out is the amount of public and personal info that can be easily accessed by anyone online.
