FFS... This article is a joke! Shame on your techspot, shame on you! Having an article asking to "hear about ideas" you have for inventions, when the article ends by requesting to "hear about" the very thing it was intended to stop!
Well, if I'm not mistaken, it's supposed to be a joke. Do you really think the staff really expects anyone to share what should be their best kept secret with the unwashed internet multitude.
Thus far, all of the responses have been humorous, or at the very least whimsical.
It's sort of an IQ test. If you fail it, you publish your billion dollar idea for someone to steal. But then, if you're too stupid to realize this, you likely are also incapable of generating a "billion dollar idea" in the first place. If you genuinely have a "billion dollar idea", then you really should be smart enough to pursue it, and not waste your time here at Techspot. Unless, you're here trying to steal someone else's "billion dollar idea". In which case, the first sign of that is denying it.
And there you have it, a riddle, wrapped in an enigma, punctuated by a conundrum, ending in a catch 22. I just invented it, but I relinquished my entitlement to copyright, or at least I will have, once I click the, "save changes" button.
So.........(wait for it)......, I'm going to devote the next five minutes of my rapidly waning "golden years", attempting to invent you a sense of humor.
