A QR tag for cars and bikes that lets strangers send parking, safety, and emergency alerts without seeing the owner's phone number.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-02 issue.

Field notes

The physical tag connects a passerby to a browser-based alert form rather than exposing a phone number. The available reasons are deliberately concrete: blocked parking, lights left on, safety issues, and emergencies. The owner dashboard shows alert-channel status, scan activity, and optional scan location, while the page states that basic alerts carry no monthly fee after the one-time tag purchase.
