I’ve gone to several comedy shows (5 or so?) that use the Yondr bags, and honestly I think they’re a pretty good solution. I think it’s fair for artists and comedians to want to prevent filming, and the phone jail thing is quite clever, actually. The bags are not indestructible, it seems like a sharp pair of scissors or a knife would get you in. And I think the magnet lock is actually bypassable otherwise. It’s just inconvenient enough that everyone pretty much just complies, while retaining physical possession of their phone. I kinda like the experience as an audience member, I think the phone thing does keep the audience more engaged with the show. I’m open to arguments against, but as it stands I find the phone jail charming
- monksy 4y agoI fully respect your preference there. I'm also glad we can have a civil agreement/disagreement about this. > it seems like a sharp pair of scissors or a knife would get you in You have neither of those during the time of an emergency. They've already taken those things away at the door with the metal detector. They do "have an area where you can unlock it" however it's a restricted area.. and not much of a use during an emergency. > It’s just inconvenient enough that everyone pretty much just complies I feel like that's why it's gotten so far as it has.
