Bandicoot: A Python Toolbox for Mobile Phone Metadata [pdf]

Really interesting toolbox. Really weird the sort of information you can infer/recreate from mobile phone communications metadata including demographic information and hundreds of behavioral indicators. Seeing the toolbox in use really crystallizes the imperative behind privacy, mobile security, and a curtailment of the Surveillance State. Regardless, looks immensely useful.
