Yes, please, let’s legalize signal jamming in cinemas. Silencing or switching off your phone at the movies is a common courtesy, but many people don’t think so.
The idea is excellent, although it can be open to abuse by government agencies since it can be deployed without user consent. Check out this article on the Chinese government using it to spy on its citizens. https://apnews.com/article/bf75dd1c26c947b7826d270a16e2658a
Chinese ‘gait recognition’ tech IDs people by how they walk
BEIJING (AP) — Chinese authorities have begun deploying a new surveillance tool: “gait recognition” software that uses people’s body shapes and how they walk to identify them, even when their faces are hidden from cameras.
Cool idea. Gait recognition is less prone to errors and can’t be hacked. It is also less invasive than other biometrics such as fingerprinting, eye scanning, and facial recognition.

Each human has a unique and identifiable walking pattern termed as a gait. Because of its uniqueness, a person’s gait can be used to identify themself just like a fingerprint.
Not everyone thinks using phones in the cinema is a bad idea.
A few countries, like France, allow cinemas to use signal jammers. This should be standard practice worldwide.

The technology is promising, but you have to iron out a few issues, such as how to accurately record your gait and the effects of weight, health, and speed changes on the gait. Check out this article here https://www.scienceabc.com/eyeopeners/is-your-walk-as-unique-as-your-fingerprint.html
