> We won't all be addicted to digital cigarettes forever. Yeah we will. Why wouldn't we? > It’s not the L3 connectivity or texts from loved ones that harms us. Yeah it is. The fact that you feel you need to "announce" yourself real time is depressing. Can you not deal with being away from your loved one. Are you that clingy that you need to be in touch 24/7? Or is it trust issues? "Hi hun; love you, ill be back in a few days" does wonders for a relationship. What's wrong of explaining your vacation after you touch base?

Agree with your comment on L3. The only exception I will make is communication in true life/death scenarios. Even then I understand the desire for some to intentionally disconnect that too. >> We won't all be addicted to digital cigarettes forever. >Yeah we will. Why wouldn't we? That's why I called them cigarettes. Smoking cigarettes used to be ubiquitous. We have dramatically reduced smoking and it's now more normal to not be addicted to cigarettes. As we better understand how things negatively impact our health we gradually adjust our behavior. This makes sense from both a natural selection stand point and by simply observing consistent advancement in healthcare. I don't claim it will go away entirely but it will be more socially acceptable to disconnect from the bad parts and you'll have better tools and support to do so.
