A cocktail bar owner has installed a Faraday cage in his walls to prevent mobile phone signals entering the building [telegraph.co.uk].

Steve Tyler of the Gin Tub, in Hove, East Sussex, is hoping customers will be encouraged to talk to each other rather than looking at their screens.

He has installed metal mesh in the walls and ceiling of the bar which absorbs and redistributes the electromagnetic signals from phones and wireless devices to prevents them entering the interior of the building.

Why you hating on millenials, Bro?
