Emergency button closes porn sites when mom comes in

The Japanese are ingenious, they’re bringing the simple technology from banks directly to your room. I’m sure you’ve seen under-table emergency buttons in banks, some are pressed with the fingers, and some with the foot. Wouldn’t it be great to be able to turn off all your embarrassing and personal pursuit on screen as soon as somebody pops up behind your back? May it be your mom, your co-workers in office or your significant other. Well, a Japanese company developed this emergency button to place under your computer table and that you can step on, to bring you back to a pre-assigned minimized screen, for example MS Word. Of course, your computer must be fast enough to respond, so you still have to think twice before browsing sites heavily loaded with graphics and videos. The emergency switch costs $26. –Sam Chan
