Talk loudly, lose a bar.
All kinds of audio wizardry goes into cell phones these days. I propose using a measure of the relative loudness of the speaker vs ambient noise to fudge the phone's signal strength in a beneficial manner.
The loud annoying jackass's phone slightly un-tunes its antenna
or tweaks its QoS to degrade the call and increase the chance that the call is dropped.
The opposite happens for considerate folks, who gain clearer and crisper audio.
Less noise pollution for all, and perhaps loud talkers can be trained. Of course, it would probably have to be made mandatory, like catalytic converters for air pollution.

And as a manufacturer I would bake this into every
cell phone because? |

Surely the easy way would be do that out-of-phase echoing in response to loud input? |

For about £19.99 you can buy a little jammer box on
eBay which kills phone, WiFi and GPS within a radius
of maybe three or four metres. They are immense
fun to own. |
