I'll agree with your definition if tin foil hats are included.

The big red caution flag that comes out more and more is when all communication is by texting. This is not a total reject, but I am coming to believe that it has reached the point where it should be. I for one, if only one, appreciate hearing a voice on the other end of the phone: the tone, the pitch, the attitude and many other things indicates much more than ever be described. It is not so much what is said, but how it is said. Recently, when a lady answered the phone
it was obvious she was very sick with something and shouldn't be working. I declined the meeting.
It is OK to set a lot of things up with a text; I am talking about not wanting everything to be by text with a total stranger!
Last fall I stayed in a about a $300 something/night hotel with a wide open brothel across the hall. At 2:30 AM I heard a lady asking the pimp, "please don't hit me, please don't hit me": I called the desk and asked for security. I had an appointment early the next morning.
The point: it isn't the hotel that always makes the difference. One should always be aware of what is happening around him. Just a few weeks ago, I did not stay in a hotel charging $270 plus whatever: I stayed 10 minutes away for much less and drove in for several days.
Most of our own safety is because we are aware of our surroundings.
