NotDarkYet Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 http://www.instantcheckmate.com/ You can check anyone's personal history online now. Arrests, marriages, misdemeanors, etc I'm wondering if this is similar to how communities will organize in a free society. Obviously it sucks that what's considered illegal is still defined by the state. But it's an interesting application. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacbot Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 Let say you run a service like this and make a mistake , you list some one as a criminal and he looses his job because of this? , or maybe doesnt get to date that girl he always wanted to date, or...whatever...

Then your service gets a reputation (UPB) for being unreliable. And if you can prove libel/slander, a free society would encourage reparations for such a mistake.

My point is from cost benefit analysis it doesnt really make a lot of sense,..., because the downside has huge cost (in damages). In the current day real world you only have positive references (employer for example) or NO references. An employer never gives out negative references because of legal trouble.

jacbot Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 Have you ever had a mistake on your credit record? Thats not the point, this not about credit (bank) For general open records,..sorry this doesnt exist for us here, and we do quite fine thank you. people can ask for references (job application), thats normal,., most do not...as big companies have a tendency to give you an IQ or psychological test (personality).., these are quite accurate. There is also company filings at the "chamber of commerce" to see if your company is financially solvable Germany and Switzerland have written references (when you leave your job)..., and for some positions they ask for criminal record (or lack thereof) especially for financial institutions.
