There are two groups of people worried snot being listened to in public. Conspiracy theorists wouldn’t trust the tech behind this, not probably even cell phones. Executives likely to use such a device aren’t using public transit.
Everyone else would be voluntarily using such a device to make things quieter for others, and the last time we tried to get people to wear a mask to benefit others was a huge failure and the consequences were far greater.
Disagree, my role requires attendance and participation in business calls constantly, and it’s not a very unique role at a company. Being able to do so in public places or traveling would be useful often, depending on how cumbersome this is to wear.
Additionally I could see this being very useful with sales folks, essentially any role with talking as a main component.
Now in its initial form it may be unwieldy but future iterations, if it can be slimmed down and/or add additional capabilities there is for sure use cases. Even with the general public being able to call family/friends on your commute home would be useful I would think.

Yes they are. Probably not in the country that calls it transit, mind. And lots of people would like to be able to have more private conversations in public, whether or not they’re travelling at the time.
Plus, I’ve seen a lot of threads over the years from gamers, or the people who have to live with them, looking for something exactly like this.

No one is going to buy this.
