Field notes

The homepage treats each request as a small production: intake, fact-checking, contact review, acceptance, and delivery. It distinguishes three possible public outputs—cleared actual audio, identity-protected reenactment, and an anonymized desk narrative—and says consent and release are required for the first. The rules exclude threats, harassment, unlawful targeting, and deceptive or dangerous scenarios, while the condition scale supplies a deliberately theatrical severity rubric.
