    The glass uses a special technology that is normally opaque and cuts off the power in a few seconds after it detects smoke, making the glass transparent.

    The shopping centres ensure that bathroom users are aware of the function with a notice on the door that says: “The glass will turn transparent if you smoke. Hold your urge to smoke if you do not want to become famous online.”

    1: I am not a fan of it requiring power to be opaque. Lights flicker and suddenly we’re all pooping with friends.

    2: the power of shame is amazing

      hope nobody ever gets literally exposed by a false positive. would be very annoying to be sitting there taking a shit when suddenly you’re visible to everyone because some dust made a sensor freak out.

      It’s amazing how many people blindly put their faith in their tech stuff to never malfunction. It’s getting harder and harder to find single purpose things that isn’t stuffed with shitty smart features. Mf just let me buy a car that does not get bricked by a software update.

      The text is wrong this technology usually fails downwards to the opaque/blurred mode.
