""" Textecution on their child’s Android phone, they are asked for an ‘admin phone number’, which will be contacted if the child ever needs to temporarily deactivate the app (like if they’re on a train or in the passenger seat). """<p>This could be really annoying if the train is underground which is probably the case for most subway systems.

with that name I expected a web app that links an execution chamber to a sms system.<p>Every time someone texts to the account with [1] the voltage is increased by 1. And when a person texts with [0] the voltage is dropped by 1. All users would be able to watch the result on a webcam.<p>The app would be monetized by charging $.99 per message. And by letting users buy volts in bulk at a discount.<p>Instant millions!
