Default Easy way pilots can help others

Just came across this and thought I'd share it here. Basically it's a free app where you upload 4 pictures of your hotel room into a database that police can access to try to find the location where exploited children and teens were photographed.

I thought since we as pilots collectively visit thousands upon thousands of hotel rooms annually it could really boost the system if we all started chipping in. It's free and easy to do.

The app is traffickcam. Here's a link to a news article about it:

Seems like hotel management should be doing this already.

Yes you are correct they really should be doing this. But on the other hand I should be making 70k with my degree, sometimes things dont work like they should.

Since mgmnt of hotels is like the regionals, I guess Ile get the app and do what I can. Brilliant idea though!
