This Weird Mask Muffles Your Voice to Keep Phone Calls Private

Hushme is a bizarre high-tech mask that blocks the sound of the wearer’s voice so that people nearby can’t hear what is being said. It connects to your phone via Bluetooth and comes with a pair of earbuds. When you get a private call, all you have to do is put the muzzle-like mask on and it will do the rest. The pair of thick cushy pads over your mouth do a good job of muffling your voice, but to ensure nothing gets through, Hushme also features external speakers that play a variety of sounds when you speak.
The Hushme mask, which comes in a variety of colors, can be worn around the neck, like a regular pair of earphones, and attaches in front of your mouth thanks to a couple of very powerful magnets. It’s not yet clear how comfortable speaking with this Bane-like mask over your mouth really is, or how effective its speech muffling capability is, so all we know so far is that it makes you look weird.
The sound options for covering your voice currently include wind, ocean, rain, birds, monkey, squirrel, R2D2, laughing Minion and Darth Vader breath, but new ones could be added in the future.
While Hushme is promoted as a phone call privacy protection device, you could always use it to protect your ears from loud mouth co-workers at the office. Just slap this baby over their mouths and you can get on with your work.
Advertised as the “world’s first voice mask for mobile phones”, Hushme was unveiled at CES, at the beginning of this year. It’s not commercially available yet, but its makers plan to start a crowdfunding campaign in May, and to start selling it by the end of the year. Engadget reports that it will cost around $200.

That looks terrible.
Why not save 200 and either talk quietly or text?

I don't like politics anymore. It feels like someone is constantly yelling things in my ear and I just want to shut them out. I don't want to think or discuss anything relating to politics ever again. Let others squabble and tear each other to shreds. I don't want to participate. It's really stressing me out. I don't like people. I just want to be alone. Leave me alone.

Not buying until there's a Bane voice pack.

>gigantic fucking thing that will bulge out of your briefcase/backpack.
Just... why? I mean I guess if it doubles as high-qual noise-cancelling headphones that'd be worth it (it sort of looks like it might?). Cell phones are designed to pick up your voice at any volume no matter the environment when your mouth is at the proper position. Otherwise for those who have a medical condition in which they're not capable of speaking quietly, a low-tech muffling pad thingy instead of some $200 electronic gadget makes way more sense and would be way less annoying in a library or cafe or bus.
I ought to make a competitor product that is exactly the same but only uses noise-cancelling tech (which is widely-available code now) and not a gigantic muffler, so people who want R2D2 or wind/ocean or Bane can get it without the giant motherfucking baggage.

You listen through it using goddamn earbuds, how does that look noise cancelling at all?
