The article implies that no one is using many of the apps described, as they are not practical in reporting sexual assault and they are not being built with real consideration as to their use. While the article does suggest that some apps are promising, such as one that sends an SOS to a preset list of contacts, there is still very little evidence that this would be used rather than simply texting or calling one of those numbers.

Emergency response is viewed in the film from the perspective of a potential patient rather than the organizations or medical professionals. From this perspective it is easy to see how the public can lose faith in the ability of their hospitals and doctors to protect them. The public did not have the information to understand that the emergency response groups were working as hard as possible, instead many people were angry at the time it would take for an ambulance to arrive, or the fact that the hospitals had to turn away patients. This emphasizes the importance of communication as the emergency responders would have had more success if the public had been cooperative, but the public could not be cooperative while their feared for their lives and the lives of their families.
