S'pose it's not even worth 'safeguarding' anymore.
Last year I bought Flushd.com, hoping to develop an app that finds the best (cleanest/nicest/coolest/strange... public bathrooms anywhere and launch in NYC. All user-submission-driven, whatever. Had a whole neat naming convention going too.
Bathrooms would be called "spots". People seek them out, photograph them, submit via cellphone, whatever. Then users can "spot" (rate up) or "squat" them (rate down). Squat meaning.. you wouldn't want your ass to ever touch the shit.
...Unfortunately, I didn't work fast enough on it (fulltime priorities) and today I get slammed by this:

...Fuck. Diaroogle?
Like the idea or not... any time you think of something jump on that shit as fast as humanly possible. I hate when this crap happens. :/

Not all ideas are good. Just look at Amy Winehouse.

You can still develop your app and differentiate it. Give people a choice. Maybe yours will be preferred.

Give people a choice between bathrooms that have running water and those that dont.
