>Which brings us to BlueLight: Our app allows a user to move the map in order to fine-tune their reported location. That’s fine, but what if someone took this to an extreme? What if a user in Texas pointed their map to UC Berkeley and made a call reporting a bogus location inside the campus? Because Murphy’s Law dictates that if something can materialize it will materialize, we decided to be proactive. So we introduced a hard limit on how far one can move the map before they are considered “Out of Area” and emergency calling is disabled. Minor corrections are cool. Location spoofing for prank calls? Not cool. There will be no “swating” with BlueLight if we can help it!

>If conditions permit (cellular data or WiFi is available)

Disable cell radio, spoof GPS location and we're done?

Hi DKnoll,

To clarify, disabling the cell radio on a device would mean you can't place a phone call.

Android has an SIP client built-in, and the blog post states that it needs WiFi or cell network, not both.

Hi, My name is Motiejus, I'm the Android developer at BlueLight. I'm here with Preet Anand (preetnation), founder and Peter our architect.

Here are the challenges of the creating a system that needs to perform better than 911. http://bluelightsafety.tumblr.com/post/110188595994/the-chal...
