How do people know that a text comes from a texting app?

Stood up? That is a safety risk now?

And as with everything net related, things are not happening more then before. You just have the availability to hear about it now. Cops were killing and beating people for years before SM, you just have the capability to record it now and show the world.

You sit there and say that we choose this professional but you forget - you choose to hobby as well. And your choice is luxury while to many SWers, the choice is out of necessity. There is a huge difference between your “choice” and that of the single mom trying to feed two kids because dad took off with the younger model.

EDIT: this does not mean that I am minimizing the client risk and I’m not saying that our protocols are more important than your boundaries either. I’m just stating some facts here. Clients should keep their boundaries but SPs should keep theirs as well. Which is why it is great that the population of men and women in this industry make enough room for all to get what they want.

I agree i just hope the industry continues to stay big enough where both client and sp can continue to get what they want from it without either one having to cross boundaries or protocols that they are not comfortable crossing. I just see the industry trending a direction where that may not be the case and thats sad.

Sounds like an opportunity for some young tech-savvy programmer to start a verification business that both parties can use.
Anonymous and safe of course!
Charge a nominal recurring subscription fee that is insignificant and market it all over the world.
The recurring rev on even a dollar here and there could be significant.

Don't forget the Liability insurance cost if a psycho get past the security and hurts a provider, that law suit(s) could be hundreds of millions.
