US is a good case study. Some venues don't won't it while others scrambling
to get best practice. We're taking about a unified hashtag also.
I personally am about to go out with my daughter to find some. I went out
earlier and as I live in a tourist town is was great to see your people
stopping to look at buildings. One even said 'I never knew we had so much
hsitriy here!' This was a lad that had lived here his whole life and is 16.
Still Gotta be cautious on jumping on a bandwagon in a creepy way :-)
