    Why build a search engine and database? Just plug in a name and it should just give you a live stream from the person's phone, GPS location and nearby surveillance cameras. Can add a checkbox for promising to follow up with a warrant later in case some civil rights namby-pambys get in office. No sign of any at the moment
