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”.

    I agree. These are anonymous messages. I don’t see any privacy violations.

    They could set up camera’s that record who’s entering and leaving the restroom and thus violate privacy but this seems fair play to me. They’ll just vape somewhere else.

        It says “Simon’s desk” which is the name of the guy making the post, which to me says he was testing the software from his desk.

        When it is deployed, it would say “vaping detected in north stairwell” or whatever. They are not installing sensors on every desk.
