I keep seeing the defense for Tea as an app for women’s safety. Wouldn’t it make more sense for a service to exist, like some kind of enforcement service provided by the government, where others can report safety concerns and that service goes and does something about it legally?

If such a service exists and isn’t being too effective, shouldn’t that be worked on?

My guess is that there’s more to the reasons for why Tea is popular but the safety argument is largely being used to defend it

I think this is called "the police"
