Not OP, but I sold my TV, stopped listening to all radio (including NPR), deleted Facebook, and the city I live in banned billboards from the main highway. So it is possible, just takes being willing to really go against the grain. I send friends emails or text messages and connect with new people via Meetup, which I pay for.
A bad side effect of this is that when I do hear ads or see a TV it's really, really difficult to filter it out.

That brings to the forefront a feeling that I have noticed in the back of my mind recently: I notice ads that many people don't since I've tried to de-advertise my content consumption. Hulu/Spotify ads breaking up episodes/songs annoy me more than ever, perhaps increasing this cascading failure that the article features.
