Could you suggest reasons why some people are deciding to reduce their use
of technology?
Many people’s whole lives are controlled by technology, especially the internet.
With so many different devices available and the number of wifi hotspots increasing
all the time, people can surf the internet anytime they want to. It’s easy to waste
hours browsing or posting trivia on social media. This is often for no real purpose
but simply because people are addicted to it. Everywhere you go you see people
tapping away on their mobile phones rather than engaging with the people around
them.
I think some people realise that they’re slaves to technology and have made a
conscious decision to cut down on their use of the internet and their mobiles in
particular. It’s hard to relax with emails, social media posts and texts pinging at you
all the time. There’s more understanding these days of mindfulness and the need to
regularly step back from our frantic, stressful lives. Reducing the use of
our electronic devices can certainly help a great deal with this and I believe this is
many people’s motivation for doing so.
