What does the whit house button do ?

[Shirou Emiya]

Okay this one I do not know the answer but while in d.c. I was walking behind the white house when I noticed a peculiar button it was on the fence with an electric cord going down to the ground. On it it said welcome to the white house! Press button
But of course no one did in fear that terrorist would jump out on us or secret service ect.

But I really wanted to know so I'm asking you what does it do ?

It's a long-running sociological experiment installed by Gerald Ford (or, at least, during his term in office). Its sole purpose is to count the number of times the button is pushed daily, and to compare the results over weeks, months, and years. What, exactly, the executive branch hopes to gain from this information has never been clear

Not sure if this is accurate, but best I could find.

read somewhere else that it used to make a recording start to play with some historical information about the white house, but doesn't work anymore. All I know for certain is nothing happens when you push it.
