This would need some impressive anti-troll precautions. Or at least a way to temporarily disable the horn, so nobody can blast it when you're in the middle of a video chat with a client, but then that'd be a source of temptation.

Alright, imagine that you as the "watched" have a choice on the type of alert you get hit with. And on the number of strangers that have to want to alert you before it happens - maybe your screen gets sent to 10 strangers and they have to achieve a quorum.

Or 10 friends. This could be a facebook app.

If anyone decides to work on this, please let me know in advance.
