This is taking the route of individual monitoring and public shaming to prevent vaping. That doesn't work, especially with teens.
It isn't individual monitoring. It is an alarm in the bathroom. It can also detect smoke from a fire.
And if there's one kid in the bathroom or a person posted by the bathroom watching the monitor? This feels very police state, monitor and enforce not educate and encourage.
Then how is the social pressure thing meant to work?
