Looks like their biz model has hit pause: Dear Guardians,
We started GuardianNet in September of last year with the goal of giving heroes like you with the desire to help others a chance to serve communities by keeping them safe and informed.
We've been blown away by the incredible contributions from the Guardian community over these last months. You alerted thousands of people to immediate danger. There were multiple shootings at malls, a gunman on the loose near a school campus, and countless robberies and burglaries. You helped get the word out for missing persons, kept residents up to date on power outages, and alerted on numerous fires.
The people of New Jersey, Los Angeles, San Francisco, and Baltimore are grateful for your work, as is everyone at Citizen.
And so, I regretfully announce that GuardianNet’s incident report feature will be temporarily paused for the near term future.
To be clear, GuardianNet will continue to be accessible as the world’s best scanner site, and we will continue to add channels for new cities as we expand. The chat room will also remain open if you want to chat with other Guardians.
The reason we are pausing incident reporting is because we want to come back to GuardianNet development when we have the proper resources to support this amazing community. We see the awesome potential of GuardianNet and in order to realize it, we will return with a full team to help implement the features many of you have requested.
As wistful as I am about pausing incident reporting, I am honestly excited about the future of GuardianNet 2.0. We will be back as a truly high-tech public protection platform and I hope you will be ready to rejoin the future of community safety when we reboot.
Best Regards,
David
