Unrelated but how accurate is that 70% statistic? I would have expected that number to be much higher.

- asafira 10y agoAlso, what group of people? the World? The US? San Francisco?
- qrv3w 10y agoPew Research Center says ~77% US adults own smartphones. [1] The director at Pew also tweeted a breakdown by country which shows a lot of variance. [2] Thus, this script won't work at all in a lot of places.

- Kali909 10y agoYeah I'm not sure on that figure. I guess you can determine how many people are around you, that have a phone and it's switched on, with the wifi on as well (I personally turn off everything when it's not being used, mostly for battery reasons on this old clunker).
- helb 10y agoProbably not very accurate, regardless of how many people have smartphones. Unless you know how big that "around" is.
