Amazon can’t quit Bezos’ drone dream

Good morning . Earlier this week, we told you about Google’s $10 million purchase of Spirit Airlines’ data in a bankruptcy auction. Well, Spirit Airlines’ former flight attendants have an announcement to make: Not so fast.

According to the Wall Street Journal , a labor union representing thousands of former flight attendants from the defunct airline have asked the court to block the deal unless it explicitly guarantees protection of their personal data.

Google wants to feed the data—which includes decades’ worth of travel and booking information, payroll data, and emails—into the maw of its ever-hungry AI machine, and it has said that customers’ personal information will be removed. The flight attendants want to make sure employee data gets the same safeguards. A judge overseeing the bankruptcy case has delayed approval of the sale so that the court can evaluate the claims.
