(Holding back the giggles, not very well.)
This is the first I have heard of it.
Geez, tp theft must be terrible there, to go to such measures.
I am sure this would not happen in the U.S. People would protest the facial profiling to the death.

I read about that – your face has to be recognized to get you toilet paper. I guess there is rampant toilet paper theft in China.

The problem of course is – suppose you have the urge but your face is not recognized? There is a big downside.

Why your face, seems like it would ass identification. Bend over and scan your behind to show a need. haha

Those of you who read or heard about it, was China was mentioned? Imagine it wasn’t mentioned. But I don’t see a problem with it as long as it’s outside the stall.

It said Beijing. What if you had a stomach ailment, and needed to go several times?
I believe it said you get about twenty inches, and that’s it.

@Patty_Melt I’ve seen people packing a ton of tp in their bags I don’t know if it’s on special occasions only or not but that,s a good idea.

I keep short rolls. I don’t use tissue down to the cardboard. If I get a cold, it goes room to room with me. I always have one on hands that way so if I will be where I may encounter a public toilet, I’m ready.
The thing is, it said they do this because people were stealing whole rolls to take home. I guess it happened a lot.
