There's a pretty significant movement among the current tech giants for allowing users to monitor their usage of technology and their various devices. iOS and Android both now support their own versions of a "screen time" monitoring system, providing exact information on each app's usage, notification traffic, etc.
So a sort of "detox" mindset, or at least a "healthy usage" mindset is definitely present in the current tech market. In addition, there was that strange "Palm phone" released recently that was marketed as a sort of weird "un-phone" that would actively discourage you from using your main phone. I'm not sure exactly how effective that is, but it is apparently enough of a part of the current technology consciousness to justify a marketing push...
