I appreciate the spotlight on large-scale systems that impact the livelihood of common people. My largest takeaway is to increase my considerations for other people and groups whrn writing future algorithms - every choice makes a difference to someone. But wow this book makes it seem almost impossible to right these wrongs. Maybe if enough coders and engineers make it their goal to reduce WMDs, we will see a more equitable use of maths and sciences.
