This problem will not be solved by technology. If you want away from it bad enough, you will stop using a smartphone or at least uninstall all apps that are for chatting and interacting with the Internet.

It would take quite some willpower for someone to do that but the added massive bonus is that no tech company can read your private conversations or look at your images.
