Police caring about stolen bicycles? I don't know where you live.
Around here, they don't even do anything about stolen phones with "find my iphone" turned on and reporting the phones exact location.

@leeloo@c.im Oh the police doesn't move a finger if it has to look for a stolen bike, However, if a victim reports to eBay or similar (in this case I know it was leboncoin.fr, a selling platform between users) that one article being sold is stolen, and there's a police file on it, the robber bank account is traced. The same happens when a transaction on Paypal is scam, fraud or illegal. After all it's in the company interest to keep the business legal. @alessandro@cosocial.ca @astronomerritt@hachyderm.io
