Mobile phones are omnipresent, but will abuse of modern technologies reduce their convenience? Camera phones are banned in many fitness centers, park restrooms, and other facilities because some people have used them inappropriately to take compromising photos, and mobile phones are banned in many classrooms due to the disruption of constant text messaging and the use of the phone by dishonest students to cheat on exams. Do these mobile phone abuse responses make sense? Is there a way to regulate mobile phone usage without outlawing it? Should technology abusers face harsher punishments?
