Public figures and online personalities face increasing swatting attacks, where fake emergency calls trigger armed police responses. A service could intercept and verify these calls with local law enforcement, preventing unnecessary raids. Monetize through subscriptions for high-risk individuals or organizations. Start with a manual verification call center, then automate with API integrations. The biggest risk is false negatives allowing attacks through.
