“If you see something, send something.” That’s the slogan for Ohio Homeland Security officials’ spiffy new “Safer Ohio” smartphone app, whose release coincides with the one-year anniversary of the Boston Marathon bombings.

It’s “Ohio’s multi-function mobile public safety tool,” the department brags; concerned citizens can use it to snap and submit camera phone pics of anything that raises their hackles, thereby “report[ing] suspicious activity directly to the state’s round the clock public safety intelligence analysts.”
