The weirdest device to help keep your calls private

This has got to be a joke right?

Ever wanted to take a call in public but didn’t know how to answer it without being overheard? Well this device called ‘HushMe’ aims to help solve the problem. It is a device which covers your mouth and connects to your phone so no one will be able to hear you talking.

I love how in the promotional video describes the device as stylish! This is such an eyesore, anything but lovely to look at. It actually reminds me of a scene in Pulp Fiction and looks like something the Gimp would wear. 

This concept certainly has a place because we have all been in an enclosed environment where the person next to you talks so loudly that everyone becomes  part of the overshare awkwardness.

I was recently a victim where a woman was having a screaming match on the phone with what I only assume was her boyfriend, something to do with how he behaved at a family gathering of some sort. She really had a go at him –screaming and swearing. It was not pretty! She would be the perfect candidate for the ‘HushMe’.
