IKEA Builds a Hotpot That Won't Turn on Until People Hand over Their Phones

The hotpot rests at the center of the table, surrounded by ingredients. It's time to cook and eat them together. 

Yes, you could eat while using your phone. But where's the fun in that? Put it away. Don't phub your dinner companions.

You don't have a choice with this hotpot table made by IKEA Taiwan. The hotpot turns on only once someone has put down a phone. The heat turns up incrementally with every phone added.
