I have a sense that "tech addiction" is a misshapen concept not because it's pointing toward some inwarranted concern, but because it medicalizes one node in the system of requirements & allowables in an increasingly unhealthy systemhttps://twitter.com/CHSommers/status/1151685083520278533 …

We've already seen this with ADHD, a diagnosis that's allocated to some people with limitations that genuinely render them nonfunctional, many people who struggle, & many more who are pathologically(?) unable to stare at spreadsheets all day at work without amphetamines
Perhaps — similarily to the way that most (if not all) humans are simply not suited to staring at spreadsheets for 4+ hours per day — most humans cannot tolerate a social hierarchy that permits them no upward moves based on mastery or valor because no true "small ponds" remain
At the same time that their every capacity is compared to, say, that of a remote worker in an arbitrarily low-GDP locale who can be hired for pennies on the dollar, an upcoming raid is inching ever closer AND HEALERS ARE DESPERATELY NEEDED
These are still largely urban concerns that haven't percolated to e.g. less dense regions of the U.S. But we still see "tech addiction" there, so what gives? I think it tells us that whatever the hierarchy/status-disrupting tech is, it's not some SF subculture issue
FWIW, my intuition is that to the extent that there's a harmful gaming/social media node dominating, it's actually downwind of the dating apps & the culture that's been forming around them for more than a decade
The second a town in Germany has to install traffic lights for pedestrians at ground level because people kept looking at their phone and ignoring the traffic lights.... we got a problem....
