Places have been doing this for years but not with screens. Just like a bulletin board with ads. Even on your table.
Places like that, you don’t go back to unless you have to. In laws couldn’t understand why I didn’t like their favorite pizza place.

Look, if the revenue goes straight into maintaining the restroom and keep it from looking like, well, a public restroom I honestly don't mind.
Something tells me that's just wishful thinking, though...

Pretty sure I saw advertisements on screens in bathrooms in American nightclubs and bars over twenty years ago. I think they didn't have one per cubicle, though.
Oops the screen got smashed in, I wonder how that happened?
I'll take the ads but only because the next step up this escalation ladder is adding cameras and almost nobody wants that.
