> There's an abundance of young people looking to get away from apps, smartphones and being constantly online.
Press X to doubt.
I believe that people are, slowly, waking up to the dangers of all these things but I don't believe for a second there is an "abundance" of young (or old) people who feel that way. I wish that was the case, but it's clearly not. And I'd love to see more articles about that but on-off or small groups of people throwing the baby out with the bathwater aren't helpful IMHO.
I am in favor of not allowing students to use phones in school, of banning social media for young people (though age verification is a can of worms), etc. I just think articles about "Landlines are ringing in homes again" are silly, not based in reality, and a waste of all our time.
