That’s a fair point. I just don’t like how introverted society has become now that everyone is staring at their phones all day and social media is such a drain on society
Pocket computers (AKA smartphones) and antisocial media use the internet, but they aren't the internet. The internet is much bigger.
I agree that antisocial media and the pervasiveness of internet-connected pocket computers have had a corrosive effect on society. My job is such that I am not able to have my pocket computer on my person at all times; consequently I'm much more comfortable off the job without it. It gives me an 'outsider' perspective. FWIW.
