    I had been on the fence about turning this on or not since I wasn't sure if turning it on would block legitimate reasons for stabbing me. I mean, I probably have deserved it many times. Good to know those reasons won't be blockers! I'll definitely turn this on if it becomes a ratified standard!

      The government turned it on by default for everyone, so now it’s just universally ignored. Happily, our local police department is sunsetting it, since it gives people a false impression of whether or not they’re currently being stabbed.
