Also, do you need a persistent internet connection at all times so it can check if you're subscribed at any moment it may need to in case of a crash? In a fast-moving vehicle? What an awful idea.
Yeah, what happens with lag, does it deploy around your corpse or in the ambulance?
If I recall correctly, it checks the status in the background every so often. It's not going to reach out for the status at the moment of impact.
It checks status when you switch it on before your ride, and warns you with LEDs if it can't activate.
It won't ever switch off during your ride unless it runs out of battery.
