A “stink fan.” Imagine 2" PVC plumbed to the toilet, and the end squashed almost flat to fit under the seat. The squashed end is not glued to the rest of the PVC for ease of cleaning. The other end has a fan and is vented outside. The fan is on a timer. A louder fan, if installed near the bathroom can give some privacy. I don't have a link, but at least one toilet manufacturer (from British Columbia, Canada, I believe) is making their toilets with under-the-rim venting and a hole in the back to attach the PVC. Or use stainless steel, rather than PCV to go under the seat. Stink fans are found in Hutterite bathrooms, as well as the common ceiling vent fan, which is not used as a stink fan, since it doesn't work nearly as well.
