Two things I find wrong with this article:
1. The headline says "silence". That conjures up imagery of the loud cell phone talker, but from the context of the article it's more likely that the yoga student was texting or emailing.
2. The article also states that "Plus One Health Management told the San Jose Mercury News that Van Ness had been told that she could not prohibit cell phone use in class." I assume that Van Ness had been advised on this before she started teaching the class not after being fired, but the article isn't explicit. It might be that if these yoga classes are offered in the middle of the day, that Facebook employees might be expected to answer important emails during class.
This article is short on the facts needed to properly judge the situation.
