Bravo. This is really incredible.

A few questions:

1. Can you talk about the impetus for this, as well as its evolution and development?

2. I presume the software is custom. Is it open source by chance?

3. People here freaked out and flagged this submission for including other people's PII, potentially without permission. Can you allay these concerns, if at least from an ethical standpoint?

Is there a way to download all of them in a single archive? I am tempted to train a GAN. What is the license?

Sorry guys, I dropped that link and then got fairly busy (while keeping an eye on the traffic). I am writing a bulk answer to your questions, coming within 24 hours.

Radical transparency yet a lot is censored? :-) Nice concept but if the aim is to just document your ideas and travels why not just a plain blog or website? What do random screenshots bring to the table, or a list of all locations on your mobile device, that a deliberate, structured blog post can't?

yeah, why dont you gave me your bank account password too, dude this is not transparent enough /s

This is not the "transparency" we want or we need.
