I hope this is correct. If it's correct, then this is something very powerful! It would mean that disintermediation can reduce violence! In retrospect, this seems obvious. There was a recent study of house cats in a southern English town, where the cats were tracked with GPS collars, and some were given camera collars. (There was also a documentary on the study on streaming services.) One thing they saw, was that cats used chemical and auditory signalling, as well as physical encounters, to negotiate schedules that prevented them from encountering each other.
I wonder if it would be possible to create an app where people could (with consent) register people they really don't like. The exact locations and identities wouldn't be displayed, but venues might glow red as if they're radioactive. Couples who have broken up might want to use this, for example. It would be like an anti-Foursquare. (Just spitballing a silly idea.)
