What happens when Promise loses an individual? Who pays the cost for them to be tracked down and returned. I'm assuming existing systems will be used such as bounty hunters to do this job.

We will not use bounty hunters like bail bond companies. We will have a plan with the local jurisdiction that we are in. That will be county specific but will involve us trying to get them back on calendar if they miss a court date, but ultimately the Sheriff or local law enforcement picking them up if they have an outstanding warrant.

  So you’ll use the local PD as bounty hunters, without the bounty. I’ve read through this whole thread, and I wonder if you’re aware of just how smarmy and evavise you’ve been throughout? As PR goes, silence would serve you better than your comments in the aggregate, and where you stop responding. For example! It’s understandable that you have no good answer to this, because the answer is clear. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=16631983 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=16631983 Cavalier indeed https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=16632252 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=16632252 Ugh https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=16631560 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=16631560 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=16631723 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=16631723 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=16632770 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=16632770 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=16632329 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=16632329 It just goes on. It’s a bit too clear that you’ve identified a place where yet another middleman can profit without solving a problem directly, or rendering services, as a for-profit company in a space which should not be producing profits.
