Skimming the comments it does look like people are mostly using it to be left alone, mostly from their families. People seem to be talking about putting it on because they need their kids to leave their office, or because they're not ready to tell their family they resigned, or they want someone to get off the phone, stuff like that. Maybe people are slacking off too but that doesn't seem to be what the comment section is about. Maybe this is a selection bias at work and the slackers don't comment or their comments get downvoted, I have no idea. I do have a hard time imagining this helping you slack off at work though. This seems like a tactic that only works on people you don't work with. Like, you put it on in, your manager walks by your desk, and sees you in a meeting with a bunch of strangers - aren't they going to ask what you're doing?
