The Independent Uganda: You get the Truth we Pay the Price
Kampala, Uganda | THE INDEPENDENT | In China, health insurance companies apparently offer discounts to people who can prove they get enough exercise every day by using their mobile phones to monitor their movement.
Only instead of actually going for walks, some people use ingenious perpetuum mobile devices (Perpetual Motion mobile phone cradles) to cheat the system.
People must prove that they walk at least 10,000 steps every day, so these perpetuum mobile devices are used as an alternative to actual exercise.
Instead of “wasting time” walking, you can just take a nap or just chill, while the motion of the cradle tricks the smartphones into recording your non-existent movement.
