Just because something is socially accepted, doesn't necessarily mean it is a good thing nor something we - as a society - can live with for eternity. Many things we would deem completely unacceptable today used to be socially accepted.
And numerous times, these acceptable items have been but mere phases in popular availability, until people realised, 'hey, why are we ruining human interaction?' and then it became unacceptable again.
People are already talking about - and have for a long time - the problem with smartphone use and social etiquette. Personally, I try to avoid my phone as much as possible whenever I am at a dinner party or visiting family. You know, be polite and show some goddamn respect.
