Would be funny if they'd built a Faraday cage around the bathroom to stop people sitting on the toilet on their phones for ages
You can't stop me, I have WarioWare on my GBA emulator on my phone!
Hasn't that been done before? Maybe not Faraday cages but jammers or something, I swear I remember something like that.
A jammer would be the stupidest thing a place could do. Is is illegal and enforced, plus cell companies help investigate it. And Faraday cage is not necessarily illegal.
Alas, the laws don't stop idiots with a "great idea":
It seems companies aren't as stupid about it as schools, though. I guess it's easier to risk wasting taxpayer money than your own money 🫤
Corporations have a legal department that will run in and slap the words back into your mouth.
That plus those seats designed to put strain on your legs would be a 0/10 pooping experience. The only way I could think to make it worse is if you could find a way to send an all-hands message in Slack: "567primemover has been on the toilet for more than 7 minutes. Send him a word of encouragement!"
Make sure the toilet is too tall for most people too.
