Can you provide several examples of where this would help? I've lived in a high-crime city (Guatemala) for a while. I imagine like other places, you develop a sense of the more dangerous areas. Outside of that, I'm not sure what intelligence can help. Real attacks are quick, sudden. One minute I'm in traffic, next minute guy's shooting the car in front of me. And a minute later, they're gone. There's basically no value in "yelling" about these things. At best, report them on Waze so people can avoid the possible traffic. For more drawn-out situations like domestic abuse, what's your expectation? Nearby won't intervene, but someone a few floors away is going to get an alert and what, jump in? Sure, you can invent scenarios where this might help (or even save a life) but I'd be surprised if this doesn't backfire. People responding to crime are going to be self-selecting to be vigilantes. A vigilante guy responding to a domestic abuse situation sounds like the start of a tragic story. Which scenarios do you see with positive outcomes? What is your team doing to mitigate the downsides? |
