    Exactly. Sure, we can say it’s not directly related to tech devices, but it’s definitely related to not wandering and having real human connection constantly.

    And with the recording of everything - absolutely changes behavior.

      There is a wast difference between the internet. That gives you access to information. And social media with algoriths fine tuned to keep you there as long as possible.
      Cameras everywhere is for sure a disaster for anyones sanity and development.

        100%. I read my phone a lot. Typically Lemmy and Wall St Journal. If I didn’t have this device I’d be reading paper magazines and newspapers just like I did pre-device / internet.

        It’s not the device, it’s how it’s being used that’s harmful. But I think we all agree with that
