      Honestly a proper panic button would have an alarm go off and speed dial 911. But I’m sure people would abuse it.

        She talked to an operator who asked if he should call the police and she said no. It’s in the article.

        Not sure what a button would have changed…

      They have customer support that provides words of platitude, an ineffective police call with a 15minute response time, and no control over the situation. My point remains standing.

      Agreed, but to play devil’s advocate, the support wasn’t branded as such and customers could’ve not reported out of shame, which wouldn’t happen if they knew they could do that at the beginning before it became anything substantial.
