Since we're re-litigating Ring's sins: How did they grow so fast?

Until 2016, Ring gave out free/discounted cameras to police & giving cops perks if the public (including victims of crimes) used the officer's discount code to buy cameras--all of which meant Ring essentially made cops salespeople.

Es complicado porque se exige que el acto de acoso sexual o de acoso laboral sea cometido EN BENEFICIO de la empresa, lo cual es una locura. El 99,99% de los casos quedan fuera de la resp. penal

Fijate, eso no lo sabΓ­a. Pues si me imagino que en cualquier caso esto en la prΓ‘ctica complicado.

People living in England and Wales are much less likely to be victims of theft than in the 1990s
Several data sources show that theft in England and Wales has declined in recent decades.
