Company creates "solution" to address school "vaping incidents". - eviltoast

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”.

    This is taking the route of individual monitoring and public shaming to prevent vaping. That doesn’t work, especially with teens.

      It isn’t individual monitoring. It is an alarm in the bathroom. It can also detect smoke from a fire.

        And if there’s one kid in the bathroom or a person posted by the bathroom watching the monitor? This feels very police state, monitor and enforce not educate and encourage.
