I think this is a truly terrible idea. First, headstones in graveyards are the opposite of offensive. They're memorials. That they're physical and long-lasting are important parts of that.
It would also require loved ones to have smartphones (not everyone does) and to run a particular app (which is intrusive) in order to honor their deceased. It means that there will be living people excluded.
> without disrespecting the graves
I think it would be disrespecting the graves to do this.
> rather than constantly in your face.
If people are so offended by headstones (I suspect few are), they can just not go to graveyards.
- amichail 10mo agoIn some cities, they might be hard to avoid seeing.
- JohnFen 10mo agoWell, that would be a landscaping/architectural misdesign that can be corrected without adversely affecting the graveyard. And should be. If you're going to the graveyard to honor your dead, you shouldn't have to look at the rest of the city while you're there.
