Some of the LinkedIn Responses are direct and on-point, and also hilariously/depressingly based depending on how you look at it:
EDIT: In hindsight, I think I should've looked into posting this in a different community.. It's closer to a silly "innovation".. soo.. is this considered FUD? I also don't support smoking or vaping, especially among kids. Original title had "privacy-violating" before the "solution".
The funny thing is: This is very likely just a VOC detector with a fancy API. I can't imagine that they spent too much on actual hardware development, especially as they are afaik not a real hardware company.
So it will be triggered by VOC.
You know what else does cause a lot of VOC to be distributed in a environment?
Yeah. Taking a proper shit.
This has very likely never been tested on an actual toilet.
Blowing vape smoke directly into the sensor to try to get the high score
Blowing smoke directly into your friend's sensor to ge them in trouble.
Or ya know, vaping in the hall where you don't have your own personal sensor and you'll be back in class by the time any sensor goes off.
the way this was framed i thought they were using like cameras and shit to detect vaping. it's just the fumes?
yeah lol fuck you, don't smoke.
also i don't care whether it's for kids or not. no one should smoke. breathing air wherever you are is a right. fuck your smoking.
edit: i think some smokers or vapists may have misunderstood what i meant by the comment above. to be clear, fuck all of you who vape or smoke anything anywhere another human being breathes. you disgusting, smelly cunts.
i hope that clears any misunderstanding ♥
I 100% support this initiative.
Apart from everything else, this is horrible UI.
A pop-up with an X to close button that's supposed to be shown on a TV, which will have no mouse attached.
The text doesn't even read like something that should be customer-facing.
