We have these in Taiwan for different reasons. In Taipei, we have tons of foot traffic so these are designed to protect innocent bystanders.
Also in Taiwan, we have these nets on almost every escalator. It’s not required by law to have these, but every business just have them to protect people falling down.

Do you not get a massive pigeon problem with them sitting on the nets and shiting on the people below?
We do have pigeons, but it’s not as pervasive as NYC. We have more sparrows and large cranes.
… From jumpers?!
There are some streets in Palestine that have/(had) nets but those were to block the trash being thrown down on top of them.
Taiwanese people tend to not want to inconvenience people even for suicide. I don’t they would jump off a building and potentially hurt someone else.
