I understand, thank you.

I think https://www.blablacar.com/ does exactly that.

Yeah, I didn't post it on Show HN because this kind of doesn't alight with the rules for Show HN. If people want to try this they will have to sign up.

When I thought of building the feature to make sure that requester as well traveller can make an entry, the idea was, requester would do it because they want something to be brought up between locations, and traveller would make an entry because they might earn some money bringing the parcel for someone from requester.

I don't live in my home country and whenever I travelled back, I got a lot requests from people I know to bring some things for them from home. That is when I thought of building `brings`, that would help connect two people, one of which is travelling between locations and another one who needs their item brought between those locations. There are a lot of improvement that we already have in mind, but would appreciate your feedback as well. Thank you.

I totally agree. That's a problem that we know of already, and do you think having the user's govt IDs verified would kind of resolve this?

Would a private company saying "trust us, we've checked their id" make me risk a 20-year stretch? No.

I understand.

This is so funny to me. You'd have to be an absolute simpleton to not come to this conclusion immediately.

"Officer I swear, the app paid me 20 quid to bring this bag I didn't pack myself. That's ok right?"
