http://blogs.forbes.com/kashmirhill/2010/10/26/antoine-dodsons-misleading-pitch-for-iphoneandroid-sex-offender-tracking-app/
Background check company BeenVerified has found an inventive way to bring attention to its snoopy services. As my colleague Brian Caulfield noted, the company has hired Antoine Dodson (of Bed Intruder fame) to help pitch the company’s latest product, a “Sex Offender Tracker” application for iPhones and Androids.
Unfortunately, Dodson’s pitch, while amusing, is extremely misleading.
In the video, Dodson says you won’t have to hide your kids, wives, and husbands anymore because of the “revolutionary sex offender app,” priced at just $1.99. After watching the pitch, you’d think the app would tell you if a potential “bed intruder” were sitting next to you in the park. The video has a demonstration of the “actual app in use” at a playground, where it shows a cluster of red dots moving around — indicating that a bunch of registered sex offenders are lurking hoping to share a swing set with your kid. That made me suspicious: did this company really get permission to access GPS information for tracking bracelets worn by sex offenders (not all of whom are actually required to wear them)?
Dodson says, “If you don’t download this app, you are dumb, you are really dumb. For real.” The actual dumb ones are those who believe his pitch.
All the app actually does is tap into info in the National Sex Offender Registry and map the results.
“The app uses publicly available addresses for registered sex offenders. It takes those addresses and displays them using augmented reality which is a live physical view of the world overlaid with graphics,” Ross Cohen, business development director for BeenVerified told me. “It does not show sex offenders walking around you.”
The video, though, does make it seem like the app is going show you more than where convicted sex offenders live. “You can use it in the ‘hood, in the park, at your Grandma’s house, on a plane, in the rain, it does not matter, the tracker works anywhere,” says Dodson, saying it’s “augmented reality.” In fact, it’s not going to do much for you on a plane unless your Boeing 747 is parked in the middle of a suburban neighborhood.
The misleading pitch led Mathew Ingram at GigaOm to ask whether the app is a futuristic invasion of privacy. “Do we really want apps that can pull up a person’s criminal history and other details about his or her life and show it to us in real-time as we watch them walk down the street?” asked Ingram.
Whether we want that or not, it’s not what this app is going to do. It’s simply mining an existing publicly-available database and re-purposing it visually. It’s like Google maps for sexual deviants.
And it’s not revolutionary or novel. TechCrunch wrote last year that a similar app by ThinAir Wireless was a top 10 seller in the iPhone store.
