Pillow Talk
The app Pillow Talk, was created as a safe haven for rape and sexual assault victims and potential victims. The app basically alerts the authorities whenever a victim is in a situation where they feel they are going to be harmed in any way. The app then sends a text asking if the victim is okay, if the victim does not respond within the time limit of 2 minutes then dispatchers are sent to the victims location. It also allows for every person who owns the app to scan their location and surrounding areas for registered predators. The app is an amazing way to keep people safe in a world of technology and also educate people on sexual assault. A lot of the times victims of sexual assault just think of it as rape or vicious crimes, when in actuality sexual assault can be other things as well especially if a predator is doing anything to make you uncomfortable and feel unsafe about your body. I think the app should be tested on college campuses such as CBU or U of M, I personally believe U of M would be a great start due to the high ratings of assault on campus.
