Some of the LinkedIn Responses are direct and on-point, and also hilariously/depressingly based depending on how you look at it:

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".

the way this was framed i thought they were using like cameras and shit to detect vaping. it's just the fumes?

yeah lol fuck you, don't smoke.

also i don't care whether it's for kids or not. no one should smoke. breathing air wherever you are is a right. fuck your smoking.

edit: i think some smokers or vapists may have misunderstood what i meant by the comment above. to be clear, fuck all of you who vape or smoke anything anywhere another human being breathes. you disgusting, smelly cunts.

i hope that clears any misunderstanding ♥

• Not an invasion of privacy.

• Activating a sprinkler would be a better deterrent than sending an alert to Simon.

One of the dumber positions I've seen in a while: that it's someone's right to break the rules and put others' safety at risk with fucking vaping, and disallowing that is against anyone's privacy.

edit: judging this sub so hard by this post and its comments. wow.
