I think it's better for Facebook to not trigger it except for truly large-scale events affecting millions (I hope never happen).

"I'm safe" / "are you safe" /"I'm ok just running out of battery" are such common protesters messages that I find it reasonable+

..to allow people to opt-in or activate this themselves, only for their friends? Why not? Trying to think through why not?

But what should Facebook do about that? That's only visible to their own friends, no? People are going to do what they do..

For me, the question is: what does Facebook control/shape/encourage vs protester needs vs people jumping in to make point?

You think Facebook should not have safety check, or should not let people not identifying as there be allowed to safety check?

Not sure what the alternative is. Force people to geolocate? (I can see some uses for that but .. dicey). Remove the feature?
