Because “prohibitions” always work out.
When we will we start designing society AROUND and WITH the inevitable pace of progress instead of making it a wall in the way?
- qwerpy 2y agoI don’t think a world of carefully curated dopamine in your pocket is progress for the human race. And besides, these bans _are_ designing society around the existence of cell phones.

- internetter 2y agoWhere do the bans end? Should offices get phone cubbies as well?
- not_a_bot_4sho 2y agoWith schools. This is narrowly focused on education, so the slippery slope concerns don't hold much weight. Although it's worth noting that many jobs, office jobs included, prohibit phone use.
- vundercind 2y agoPhones mostly aren’t progress, as far as schools go. Game boys and walkie-talkies weren’t either. Playing cards. Marbles (in the classroom). Instamatic cameras. And the ban on passing notes is basically ancient. Those same things but on one tiny computer doesn’t suddenly make them good to allow in schools.
