The widespread availability of mobile phones now provides enormous convenience, but may its abuse lead to the loss of this benefit? Mobile phones are banned in many classrooms due to the distraction of constant texting and the use of the phone by dishonest students to cheat on exams; similarly, camera phones are now banned in many fitness centers, park restrooms, and other similar facilities because some people have used them inappropriately to take compromising photos. What do you think about these responses to cell phone abuse? Is universally prohibiting cell phone use the only solution, or are there alternative methods to assure responsible usage? Should individuals who exploit technology in a dishonest or immoral way face harsher penalties?
