one whisper. one webhook.
secret phrase → silent call → protection before they know it.
EV_A(α) = U − α(U − V) α* = 0.264
One tool that seems to me would lead to large wins for safety at very low cost to civil liberties, is that everyone should have easy and deniable on-hand ways of calling the police.
Think: you pre-select a few secret words, and when your watch or phone or local device in your house hears these words, it silently auto calls 911, and temporarily streams to the police your real-time location.
This could work very well for eg. crypto holders who are worried about getting kidnapped / robbed. If we create an environment where if you rob someone (whether at home or outside), there is at least a 20% chance that the police will be on their way immediately, so you won't have time to take anything from them and you don't even realize whether or not the alarm got triggered, then that type of crime flips to being very non-viable.
And because this requires deliberate action from the victim in order to function, the risk that this can be used by the government against people seems relatively quite low.
at 26% adoption, the expected value of attacking a crypto holder drops below zero.
the criminals math stops working.
read the model →one device. one trigger. infinite configurations.
murmr is a silent, ambient trigger. you choose a phrase. when murmr hears it, it fires an authenticated webhook with your GPS coordinates in under 2 seconds. it retains zero data. audio is processed in real time and immediately discarded.
the webhook is the api for physical safety
deterrence economics
murmr makes the criminals math stop working.
a single-shot simultaneous game under incomplete information. the attacker chooses whether to initiate. the target may or may not carry murmr. the attacker cannot observe the target's type.
G = {A, T}
S_A = {attack, abstain}
S_T = {armed, unarmed} // murmr carrier status
P(armed) = α // adoption rate, unknown to A
P(unarmed) = 1 - απ_A(attack | unarmed) = R · P_s - C · P_c
π_A(attack | armed) = R · P_s' - C · P_c'
π_A(abstain) = 0
EV_A(α) = U - α(U - V) // linear, strictly decreasingdeterrence threshold: α* = U / (U − V)
the adoption rate at which attacking becomes unprofitable. beyond α*, the rational strategy is abstention.
roadmap
v1 / genesis
open source hardware. wake-word detection. webhook output. companion app.
v2 / expansion
gunshot detection, glass break, fall detection. user-swappable models. community classifiers.
v3 / network
decentralized relay network. DAO governance. tokenized incentives. murmr becomes infrastructure.
