With respect, I'd urge you to think about what you are saying.
Most people who visit this cabin do want to turn off their devices. That's the goal. When the cabin was built, we lived in a reasonable world where being un-contactable for a week was common. That world is dead.
We need reliable connectivity because without it many people could not travel to the cabin at all. They don't have the power to change the world they live in or their position in it. They may need to take a zoom meeting or respond to an email.
Instead of impertinently implying I am not aware of the downsides of this state of affairs I encourage you to articulate what you mean in a way that doesn't talk down to people.
P.s. The Uk does indeed have "off grid" cabins![1]

And that world could still be alive but we choose to keep it dead. Which is sad. > We need reliable connectivity because without it many people could not travel to the cabin at all. Maps. How did folk get to the cabin before the connectivity was abundant? > They may need to take a zoom meeting or respond to an email. Then don't go to the cabin if they need to take a zoom meeting, or respond to an email.
