I briefly installed Life360 when some members of a group trip tried to sell the rest of us on it as a sort of emergency personal location beacon, like the colonists had in Aliens. It's one of the most domestic-abuser-friendly apps I've ever seen.
Most of the people your products are being misused to stalk can't even turn off their location sharing because the person who's insisted they install the app/hardware will assume that doing so means they're off spending time with someone else, or whatever their personal paranoid fantasy is. Why would someone being subjected to that contact you? It would just enrage whoever is monitoring their movements when their account was suspended, or whatever your process is.
The people misusing your products in that way don't think they're doing anything wrong, so they're not going to hesitate to have you verify their ID.

Other than location history, is there a big difference between Life360 and builtin iPhone location sharing? To me, that's not enough to put the product in a different category.
