"Is this the best tool for the job"

is a very simple statement that should be universally applied. Somehow, people have been convinced that "tech", now re-defined as "the latest and greatest internet-connected widget", is the best tool for every job, when (for example) regularly meeting up with friends is actually the best way to form deep social bonds and reap the rewards in personal development, or finding some other way to entertain yourself than passively staring at a screen is a more productive way to occupy your brain and life energy.

We really have become ensnared by our own creations.
