You haven't really addressed the article. Are the descriptions of how smartphones have changed society and the people living in it wrong in some way? I'd be curious to hear thoughts on that. You spent 3 paragraphs essentially saying "I disagree", with little elaboration. "Living technology-free" is a strawman. The author is saying we should be more conscious of how we use technology, not abandon it all together. P.S. You also seem to be taking it rather personally...

It was about to be a great story about how smartphones and technology distraction affected _him_, and how he dealt with it. Then it took a turn down the "this is a problem for all of us" path. Think of a hobby you really enjoy, and then imagine someone telling you "I didn't like that hobby--I thought it was a bad use of my time, AND I think it's a bad use of your time too!" He has a right to say it of course, but I think it's fair to have a personal reaction to that.
