Dropping in a coin vs what seems to be downloading some sort of an app or at least opening some shady websites on your fucking phone over your fucking mobile data is where I see it. Even if you used the payment option, you’d have to disclose your online payment information to the provider. Privacy nightmare.
Comment on Watch first, then wipe: Some China’s restrooms put toilet paper behind paywall

How is this any different than Germany where oftentimes the entrance itself is behind a paywall?

Or simply imagine you just took your most violent shit of the century and then have an ad for hot mexican food or something.

The entrance being behind a paywall is bad, but if you’re not aware of it before using the toilet this holds you hostage unable to get clean until you pay up, with either your money or your attention. I’d say this is a more evil design, even though both are evil.

Berlin Hbf. They have a single set of toilets about half the size of what you’d get in a shopping center which cost €2 with turnstyle access for a station the size of a cathedral with something like 20 platforms. 🙈

In Germany you’re paying to access the bathroom, not the “privilege” of wiping your ass

It sets precedent. You could extend that on anything. Doesn’t make the German pay or piss yourself thing any better though.

They tried pay toilets in the states but people vandalized the shit out of them until they were gone. These days it can be hard to find public restrooms in places though.
