I was in an equipment rental place today, and noticed a product they had (for sale, I think). The bucket-shaped package contained a “full-body harness” and a “shock-absorbing lanyard”. The brand name was “Compliance in a Can”, which sounds like something a dominatrix might want to keep handy.
Are there any similarly interesting products you know of?
