Qualche esempio estratto dal report, che altrimenti a qualcuno potrebbe
rischiare di suonare come una esagerazione "complottista":

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---

Thomson Reuters, one of the country’s largest data brokers, surveils
public benefits recipients on behalf of the government and uses ADM
systems to rate their likelihood of committing fraud.

The Metropolitan Police Department uses automated license plate readers
to capture drivers’ license plates and feed the plate numbers into
databases of residents’ locations and travel patterns.

[...] The process begins when an outreach worker or homeless service
organization uses the VI-SPDAT survey to collect data about unhoused
people’s health, social activity, income, personal habits, experience
with violence, social security numbers, demographic information,
migration status, and more. This data is entered into a federally
approved Homeless Management Information System (HMIS),

[...] According to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau,21 a tenant
screening report may consist of information from any or all of the
following:

• Credit reports
• Rental and eviction history
• Employment verification
• Criminal history
• Sex offender status
• National terrorist watchlist

Most tenant screening companies buy this information in bulk from a
variety of sources, then produce a “risk rating” or a “risk score” for
potential landlords.  A large number of private companies produce tenant
screening reports with very little oversight. These reports have been
the subject of investigations, lawsuits, and legislative efforts that
challenge their inaccuracies, their unclear dispute and correction
process, and their impact on fair housing laws.

Un veloce e incompleto (perché l'amministrazione non è affatto
trasparente) riassunto dei sistemi automatici usati è riportato a pagina
12 del report, nella tabella «Table: Automated Decision-Making Systems
in D.C»

...ma soprattutto, sottolineato ottantacinque(mila) volte:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---

Agencies claim ADM systems are necessary to efficiently decide who gets
access to limited resources.

Sempre la solita titirera: le risorse sono (state!) /limitate/ :-O
