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”.
In my high school they managed to rip the alarm’s siren off the wall without triggering it; if these kids have even an 1/8 th of the ingenuity they had, these things aren’t gonna last
Its amazing the number of problems in life that can be solved with a $2 harbor freight automatic punch. Speakers especially.
Plastic bag and a rubber band, my good sir!
I’m intrigued. How does that work?
It has to have the vape fumes get to the sensor. Cover the sensor with the bag, tie off with rubber band. No more ability to sense what can’t get there.
I, in no way, am endorsing vaping, especially with kids.
Oh haha yea. I thought that was for the alarm sirens.
A very long time ago, and much less technologically advanced:
I went to boarding school. We had a little bit of a propensity for sneaking out of the dorm at night.
New dean comes in our senior year and installs alarms on all the exits.
Our senior year time capsule contains the controlling keypad to that alarm system that wasn’t even functional for twenty four hours.
I’ve no doubt that today’s teens possess the ingenuity to bypass if not completely disable this thing.
Do kids prefer to not have doors then? Because I’m reading a lot of messed up headlines where the school removes the stall and bathroom doors and kids lose their privacy.
I’d rather have the TV with an alert than have to do competitive pooping.
That just sounds like a seperate problem to me.
It’s a separate but adjacent problem.
No school should ever be allowed to take the doors off bathroom stalls.
That just seems to be the alternative that don’t places are doing to deal with kids congregating in the bathroom to vape.
That seems like a management issue.
They can see the time it went offline and then the time you walked out of the bathroom. It doesn’t take much to put it together.
Also I think these devices are designed to be resistant to tampering.
