Sounds great for a vacation. But considering I make a living talking to people who don't wear tinfoil hats, it's really not realistic to live the rest of my life disconnected from the net. I imagine the same goes for 99% of people on this site.
- doctorshady 12y agoThat's a fair point, but I'm still willing to bet you could at the very least drastically reduce the amount of time you spend on the net if you wanted to.
- XorNot 12y agoI could dramatically reduce any number of things if I really wanted to. That doesn't make it practical though, since I don't want to, or I want to still partake in a modern civilization. The better question to ask is "will being off the grid actually solve the problem?" Because plenty of people aren't on the net in Syria, Iraq, Afgahnistan...still doesn't really work out.
- exelius 12y agoYeah; but it's not about how much time you spend on the net: simply owning a smartphone and using it sparingly exposes a lot of information.
