Emerging Trends in Rideshare Security

A new rideshare app, Protector, emphasizes personal security by providing bodyguards for users, allowing them to select the guardian's uniform. This service, which can cost around eighteen hundred dollars, also offers options for shared bodyguards among groups, sparking discussions about social dynamics and safety at events. The creators of Protector aim to cater to individuals who feel threatened in public spaces, highlighting a growing concern for personal safety in today's society. However, there are concerns about the implications of needing such security and the potential for further societal divisions.
