I guarantee they would get sued/attacked into oblivion, within a year or two. Look at what happens to Krebs. He gets SWATted, all the time.

They would need some good backing, and have to be subject to fairly stringent controls, themselves.

Sued by whom?

If they have false positives, or even real positives on outfits with lawyers on speed-dial.

You see that stuff all the time, with even officially-sanctioned enforcement agencies. Amateurs won't have a chance.
