Gimme a break. Government will monitor results. Millennials love to be monitored heavily and be dependent on everyone else and everything else. No self responsibility. What's next, self-feeding machines? So sad.

Chinese public toilets have facial recognition and will only dispense a fixed amount of toilet paper to each recognized face. This is what we have to look forward to with everything being "smart". No thank you. I prefer dumb. Except my phone.

Otherwise, nope.
It wouldn't be ONLY you...that's the problem.

I don't think any smart toilet would be compatible with my dumb ass. I think I need an upgrade.

I much prefer the days when the phone hung on the wall land "I answered it if I wanted to". If I"m not there it no big deal and there was a law against using the phone for solicitation. our world had gone nutz.
In the old days justice dealt with criminals, now criminals determine justice.
I don't see any of this as progress.
