  • Data advocacy group wants Apple and others to give away mapping data in UK

    Give away?  Or be compelled to offer for sale?   Neither seems very fair.

    Apple:  Let’s let Google and Uber gather the data.  We’ll just use theirs.

    Google:  Sorry, we’re going to stop gathering and use Apple’s and Uber’s data.

    Uber: Don’t look at us.  We’re thinking we’ll use your data.  You two have deeper pockets to spend on gathering. 
    Is it fair other agencies are required to provide their data to these private companies? Why should the UK tax payer fund these companies?
