Short Codes Open Johns
Authorities in Finland, wanting to try and avoid damage to public toilets, have come up with an interesting solution. In order to use the toilet, you have to text ‘OPEN’ to a shortcode — which immediately opens the door. In this way, if someone damages the facilities, authorities have the relevant mobile phone numbers to follow-up.
I can imagine some funny situations if you had to go really badly and were a slow texter.
