For the larger story on EaaS, read this white paper: Tokenomics

Imagine being in a park with your child and turning your back for just a moment. They vanish and your world falls apart. The actual disappearance could be anything from an innocent wandering off to abduction and trafficking.

Twenty-five years have passed since the Amber Alert system was first introduced. In that time, over 1,000 children have been rescued as a direct result of an Amber Alert. It’s been a remarkable public service. Based on this success, more alerts, like silver and blue, have been added.

But the world has changed a lot since Amber Alert’s inception. Along with the significant rise of smart and connected technology has unfortunately come an even greater rise in more heinous crimes such as human trafficking. While technology and data capabilities are generations beyond the original system, Amber Alert has remained largely fixed in its 1.0 set of capabilities.

THE PROPOSED SOLUTION

It’s time to harness these new technology breakthroughs and herald in the introduction of Amber Alert 2.0, a broader, more robust platform harnessing Ethics as a Service (EaaS) that will geometrically increase success. The plan is to augment the existing system with the following new resources:

· Digital wallets that can pre-collect and keep critical child biometric data safely and privately in parental lockers for later instant use with consent.

· Use of the CNS — the Consent Name Service, supporting instant opt-ins for cross-platform data to be activated, specifically financial and location data.

· Authorized Agents that can manage pre-arranged affirmative express consent of parents/guardians on behalf of a child across a number of affiliates.

· An ability for various data providers, such as financial institutions and telcos to license the use of data, such as SPI data (Sensitive Personal Information) to remain in compliance with myriad privacy laws around the world.

· A publish and subscribe messaging queue to handle communications between disparate components of the architecture.

· Data tools and rules from Project Shadow in Canada and Project Umbra in the US to direct and overlay financial and telco data with the affirmative express consent of the parents.

· Onboarding of rescue organizations with MOU (Memos of Understanding) to work alongside various law enforcement agencies in other countries.

· Facial recognition to be applied to know and discovered websites focused on human trafficking.

· Coordination with prosecutors in various countries that may not have laws against human trafficking to use all intellectual property, copyright, misappropriation, and defamation laws and the like when the perpetrators did not gain parental consent to use their child’s likeness. This is a bit like getting Al Capone on tax evasion and is now embraced by the UN.

· Coordination of biometric matches with parents, rescue organizations, NGO’s, law enforcement, and prosecutors to bring about swift returns of children.

Use Case: a child goes missing, a parent presses a button on their phone, and instantly data from many different origins are orchestrated in stages to bring about the swiftest return of the child. Learn More
